Fixes#8343#4154#7370Closes#4155
All but one of the backports packages were using "pkgutil-style"
namespacing, but configparser was using "pkg_resource-style".
A namespace needs to be one style or another. This adds a new
configparser version which switches to using the pkgutil-style
namespace approach.
With this update, one can now install flake8 with Spack and use
it by loading modules.
- 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
- Add a PythonPackage class with build system support.
- Support build phases in PythonPackage
- Add a custom sanity check for PythonPackages
- Get rid of nolink dependencies in python packages
- Update spack create to use new PythonPackage class
- Port most of Python packages to new PythonPackage class
- Conducted a massive install and activate of Python packages.
- Fixed bugs introduced by install and activate.
- Update API docs on PythonPackage
* Removing the nobuild, nolink, and alldeps dependency types in favor of being explicit.
* This will help with maintenance going forward, as adding more dependency types won't affect existing declared dependencies in weird ways.
* default deptype is still `('build', 'link')`
* Warn user if flake8 can't find setuptools
* Add missing dependencies of flake8
* Updates to py-autopep8, make packages activateable
* Check for presence of setuptools for Sphinx too
* Fix bug in order of commands
