Now *that* is really useful!  Thank you very much.

Could this perhaps either be integrated into EasyBuild, or made installable 
as an EasyBuild module? 

Best regards

Re: [easybuild] Canonical setup for Lmod installed via EB?

why not use less ancient lmod from openHPC ( ATM 
"lmod-ohpc-7.7.14-3.1.x86_64" ) ?
I consider openHPC as trusted-enough source of RPMs, especially in HPC 
env...


Where might the associated Yum repository or just the RPMs be found?

Thanks, Ole

We could always hope that the EPEL maintainers would eventually agree to 
my request to update Lmod to 7.8 in EPEL, see 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1651546


It might be beneficial if other sites would add arguments to my request 
in the Bugzilla, hoping that its priority might be increased.


Thanks,

Re: [easybuild] Canonical setup for Lmod installed via EB?

Hmm, I don't see an easy answer here. What I can think of is modifying your 
Lmod easyconfig to update a link at say
/trinity/shared/easybuild/software/Lmod/lmod -> %(installdir)s/lmod/lmod
You can then use that link in your profile scripts since it is static.

You need to be a bit careful but this might work (untested):

postinstallcmds = 'ln -sfn %(installdir)s/.. %(installdir)s/lmod/lmod'

I now need to link the init scripts to /etc/profile.d.  However, since
the path with the link

still contains the version, I'm still stuck with the version dependency.

So what's the canonical solution?  Linking

  /trinity/shared/easybuild/software/Lmod/7.3/lmod/lmod

to, say,

  /trinity/shared/easybuild/apps/lmod

and then linking

  /etc/profile.d/z00_lmod.sh

to

  /trinity/shared/easybuild/apps/lmod/init/profile

?

Cheers,

[easybuild] Canonical setup for Lmod installed via EB?

[Loris Bennett]

Hi,

On Centos 7 I installed EB using the system version of Lmod (6.6.3).  I
have now installed Lmod 7.3 via its easyconfig.  I now have the
directory

  /trinity/shared/easybuild/software/Lmod/7.3/lmod/7.3

which contains

  7.3
  lmod -> 7.3

I now need to link the init scripts to /etc/profile.d.  However, since
the path with the link

  /trinity/shared/easybuild/software/Lmod/7.3/lmod/lmod

still contains the version, I'm still stuck with the version dependency.

So what's the canonical solution?  Linking

  /trinity/shared/easybuild/software/Lmod/7.3/lmod/lmod

to, say, 

  /trinity/shared/easybuild/apps/lmod

and then linking

  /etc/profile.d/z00_lmod.sh

to 

  /trinity/shared/easybuild/apps/lmod/init/profile

?
