- remove the old LGPL license headers from all files in Spack
- add SPDX headers to all files
- core and most packages are (Apache-2.0 OR MIT)
- a very small number of remaining packages are LGPL-2.1-only
Spack provides a number of classes based on commonly-used build systems
that users can extend when writing packages; the classes provide functionality
to perform the actions relevant to the build system (e.g. running "configure" for
an Autotools-based package). This adds documentation for classes supporting the
following build systems:
* Makefile
* Autotools
* CMake
* QMake
* SCons
* Waf
This includes build systems for managing extensions of the following packages:
* Perl
* Python
* R
* Octave
This also adds documentation on implementing packages that use a custom build
system (e.g. Perl/CMake).
Spack also provides extendable classes which aggregate functionality for related
sets of packages, e.g. those using CUDA. Documentation is added for
CudaPackage.
