This README.md will eventually be merged back into develop. I assume you want this to be reverted when that happens? How do we keep track of this?

[stiggy87]

I can change these now, actually. I was thinking about it, and really the doc update was me making sure I didn't miss a step. I'll change these back to develop since I have instances ready for the release.

[stiggy87]

@climbfuji I've reverted it back to develop, so we should be good with a merge.

I'm testing this branch on my EC2 Ubuntu 24.04 instance. The current state of this feature branch enables concretize to work out of the box which is great! I'm currently running spack install. I'll keep you posted.

The install failed on numactl. I'm seeing this error in the configure step:

I can't get to this again until tomorrow (sorry). In the meantime, do you have any thoughts about what might be causing this? Thanks!

Any feedback on the build error that @srherbener reported?

[stiggy87]

I haven't been able to reproduce it. I'll keep trying this morning and hopefully have an update soon!

[srherbener]

I have sync'd up my local clone on my EC2 instance (about 20 minutes ago) and am trying the build over from scratch. The concretize step worked out of the box, and the install is running now. I'll keep you posted.

[srherbener]

If @stiggy87 can't reproduce the error, the issue might be that my instance is missing something that @stiggy87 had to install or upgrade (external to spack-stack) to get the spack-stack build working. I launched my instance about a month ago, and we have been trying to keep it up to date (but who knows?). I would be inclined to abandon testing my instance if @stiggy87's works (call the PR good), build the AMI from his instance, and I can destroy my instance and relaunch it from the new AMI.

[stiggy87]

Found the issue, the libtool package wasn't installed on my test instances.

[srherbener]

I'll try adding libtool to my instance, and retry the build. I'm not clear if anyone has done the build from scratch yet, so I've changed my mind and thought it would be good for me to try again. Thanks!
