Arnau, That is totally fine. The easyconfig files without a toolchain in the file name are built with a system toolchain (i.e. the compiler provided by your OS) and are required in order to build the GCCcore components. Once the GCCcore toolchain is built, those libraries are built again with GCCcore and used for all successive build dependencies.

Everything work nice except for the fact that I'm noticing that some software are being installed twice, same software and version but one without the toolchain one with the toolchain. I.e: 1 zlib-1.2.11.eb 1 zlib-1.2.11-GCCcore-10.3.0.eb 1 ncurses-6.2.eb 1 ncurses-6.2-GCCcore-10.3.0.eb 1 binutils-2.36.1.eb 1 binutils-2.36.1-GCCcore-10.3.0.eb As I'm creating new easyconfigs for some software that are not yet available with the 2021a toolchain, I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong in the easyconfig so I'm telling EB to install the software twice. Or is it something somehow expected? Anyone could give a hand? I've been looking into my easyconfigs and can't find the reason for this thing. TIA, Arnau
