Dear EasyBuilders,
We're happy to announce the release of EasyBuild v4.6.1 [1].
An independent jury of experts thoroughly evaluated this release, and reached
the unanimous conclusion that this is the best EasyBuild release to date!
I am sure it is the best release ever, but I currently can't install it
on CentOS 7 :-(
I get the error
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'Crypto'
Where/when/how are you hitting this exactly? EasyBuild doesn't require a
Crypto module itself at all...
Via EPEL I can install
python36-pycryptodomex
but this installs it modules in the namespace 'Cryptodome', rather than
'Crypto'.
I can probably just symlink 'Cryptodome' to 'Crypto', but is there a less
hacky option?
I think we need some more information on how you're triggering this, and
where the problem comes from.
At first sight, it may be a sign of a broken Python installation, or of
a dependency picked up by EasyBuild.
regards,
Kenneth

As usual, there's a lot of attempts to distract you from this, including soaring
gas prices, granting rest to The Queen, and a Belgian 22-year old brat winning
the Vuelta (w00! \o/). What will they think of next...
The executive summary for this release:
- various minor bug fixes for EasyBuild framework;
- various bug fixes and enhancements to existing easyconfigs and easyblocks;
- easyconfigs for various recent software versions: GATE v9.2, Graphviz
v5.0.0, LAMMPS v23Jun2022, OpenFOAM v2206, ...
- support for installing 37 new software applications and libraries;
EasyBuild v4.6.1 is primarily a bugfix and update release, but it also includes
various minor enhancements.
Highlights for this release are listed below. More details are available in the

detailed information.
(this information is also available at
https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild/releases/tag/easybuild-v4.6.1>>>
## Highlighted enhancements
[enhancements that (may) warrant updating existing installations are marked with
(***)]
- run python in the same process as eb wrapper script by using exec (which
improves startup performance of eb command);
- reduce the number of command line options for cmake command in CMakeMake
generic easyblock;
- enhance PythonPackage easyblock to make sure all test command output makes it
to the EasyBuild log, also when return_output_ec=True is used;
- updates and enhancements for various software-specific easyblocks: GROMACS,
LAMMPS, libQGLViewer, NVHPC, PyTorch;
- (***) add extra symlinks and sanity checks for libtinfo in ncurses;
- speed up OpenMPI 4.1.4 configure by not running autogen.pl --force, but only
running required Autotools commands;
## Prominent bug fixes & changes
[bug fixes or changes that (may) warrant reinstalling easyconfigs are marked
with (***)]
- use det_cmake_version function to determine CMake version in CMakeMake generic
easyblock (rather than assuming that CMake is loaded as a build dependency);
- don’t enable building of ld.gold when installing binutils on a RISC-V system +
don’t configure GCC to use gold as default linker on a RISC-V system;
- make Amber easyblock aware of FlexiBLAS;
- tweak Amber(Tools) easyblock to run tests from top-level directory, and enable
running of tests for AmberTools v20 + v21;
- work around miscompilation of OpenBLAS on POWER by compiling with
-fstack-protector-strong;
- various fixes for installing PyTorch on POWER systems;
- (***) replace HDF5 v1.13.1 with v1.12.1 as dependency, since we shouldn’t use
odd minor versions of HDF5 which are not stable releases;
- (***) use versioned symbols in ncurses built with system toolchain (by adding
--with-versioned-syms configure option);
- (***) add CVE patch for XZ 5.2.5 + attempt to fix symbol patch for all OSs;
- (***) add patch for AlphaFold v2.2.2 to fix NaN problem with jax 0.3.9;
- simplify AlphaFold foss/2021a easyconfigs by using a fleshed out patched
OpenMM dependency;
- (***) add patch to fix missing sync in LINCS and SETTLE CUDA kernels for
GROMACS 2020 and 2021;
- (***) fix checksum for Stacks v2.62 (due to silent re-release without version
bump);
- (***) consistently add maeparser + CoordgenLibs dependencies to OpenBabel
3.1.1 easyconfigs;
- (***) update Java/11 to 11.0.16 and Java/17 to 17.0.4;
