Known issues reports only 2 issues, among the bugs reported on GitHub.
One of the two is also outdated, since the issue has been solved
with the new concretizer. Thus, this commit removes the section.
When you install Spack from a tarball, it will always show an exact
version for Spack itself, even when you don't download a tagged commit:
```
$ wget -q https://github.com/spack/spack/archive/refs/heads/develop.tar.gz
$ tar -xf develop.tar.gz
$ ./spack-develop/bin/spack --version
0.16.2
```
This PR sets the Spack version to `0.18.0.dev0` on develop, following [PEP440](https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/25267#issuecomment-896340234) as
suggested by Adam Stewart.
```
spack (fix/set-dev-version)$ spack --version
0.18.0.dev0 (git 0.17.1-1526-e270464ae0)
spack (fix/set-dev-version)$ mv .git .git_
spack $ spack --version
0.18.0.dev0
```
- [x] Update the release guide
- [x] Add __version__ to spack's __init__.py
- [x] Use PEP 440 canonical version strings
- [x] Make spack --version output [actual version] (git version)

This PR removes a few outdated sections from the "Basics" part of the
documentation. It also makes a few topic under the environment section
more prominent by removing an unneeded spack.yaml subsection and
promoting everything under it.

the first block written in compilers.yaml. The version number of ifx can
be detected using MSVC's version flag (instead of /QV) by using
ignore_version_errors. This commit also provides support for detection
of Intel compilers in their own compiler block by adding ifx.exe to the
fc/f77_name blocks inside intel.py

Update Installer CI
Co-authored-by: John Parent <john.parent@kitware.com>
* environment.py: allow link:run
Some users want minimal views, excluding run-type dependencies, since
those type of dependencies are covered by rpaths and the symlinked
libraries in the view aren't used anyways.
With this change, an environment like this:
```
spack:
specs: ['py-flake8']
view:
default:
root: view
link: run
```
includes python packages and python, but no link type deps of python.
* extensions: allow multiple "extends" directives
This will allow multiple extends directives in a package as long as only one of
them is selected as a dependency in the concrete spec.
* document the option to have multiple extends
* Add 'stable' to the list of infinity version names.
Rename libunwind 1.5-head to 1.5-stable.
* Add stable to the infinite version list in packaging_guide.rst.

Updates to installer.py did not account for spack monitor, so as currently implemented
there are three cases of failure that spack monitor will not account for. To fix this we add additional
hooks, including an on cancel and also do a custom action on concretization fail.

Modifications:
- [x] Removed `centos:6` unit test, adjusted vermin checks
- [x] Removed backport of `collections.OrderedDict`
- [x] Removed backport of `functools.total_ordering`
- [x] Removed Python 2.6 specific skip markers in unit tests
- [x] Fixed a few minor Python 2.6 related TODOs in code
Updating the vendored dependencies will be done in separate PRs
Currently Spack vendors `pytest` at a version which is three major
versions behind the latest (3.2.5 vs. 6.2.4). We do that since v3.2.5
is the latest version supporting Python 2.6. Remaining so much
behind the currently supported versions though might introduce
some incompatibilities and is surely a technical debt.
This PR modifies Spack to:
- Use the vendored `pytest@3.2.5` only as a fallback solution,
if the Python interpreter used for Spack doesn't provide a newer one
- Be able to parse `pytest --collect-only` in all the different output
formats from v3.2.5 to v6.2.4 and use it consistently for `spack unit-test --list-*`
- Updating the unit tests in Github Actions to use a more recent `pytest` version
See #25249 and https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/27159#issuecomment-958163679.
This adds `spack load --list` as an alias for `spack find --loaded`. The new command is
not as powerful as `spack find --loaded`, as you can't combine it with all the queries or
formats that `spack find` provides. However, it is more intuitively located in the command
structure in that it appears in the output of `spack load --help`.
The idea here is that people can use `spack load --list` for simple stuff but fall back to
`spack find --loaded` if they need more.
- add help to `spack load --list` that references `spack find`
- factor some parts of `spack find` out to be called from `spack load`
- add shell tests
- update docs

A common question from users has been how to model variants
that are new in new versions of a package, or variants that are
dependent on other variants. Our stock answer so far has been
an unsatisfying combination of "just have it do nothing in the old
version" and "tell Spack it conflicts".
This PR enables conditional variants, on any spec condition. The
syntax is straightforward, and matches that of previous features.
There were some loose ends left in ##26735 that cause errors when
using `SPACK_DISABLE_LOCAL_CONFIG`.
- [x] Fix hard-coded `~/.spack` references in `install_test.py` and `monitor.py`
Also, if `SPACK_DISABLE_LOCAL_CONFIG` is used, there is the issue that
`$user_config_path`, when used in configuration files, makes no sense,
because there is no user config scope.
Since we already have `$user_cache_path` in configuration files, and since there
really shouldn't be *any* data stored in a configuration scope (which is what
you'd configure in `config.yaml`/`bootstrap.yaml`/etc., this just removes
`$user_config_path`.
There will *always* be a `$user_cache_path`, as Spack needs to write files, but
we shouldn't rely on the existence of a particular configuration scope in the
Spack code, as scopes are configurable, both in number and location.
- [x] Remove `$user_config_path` substitution.
- [x] Fix reference to `$user_config_path` in `etc/spack/deaults/bootstrap.yaml`
to refer to `$user_cache_path`, which is where it was intended to be.
Spack's `system` and `user` scopes provide ways for administrators and
users to set global defaults for all Spack instances, but for use cases
where one wants a clean Spack installation, these scopes can be undesirable.
For example, users may want to opt out of global system configuration, or
they may want to ignore their own home directory settings when running in
a continuous integration environment.
Spack also, by default, keeps various caches and user data in `~/.spack`,
but users may want to override these locations.
Spack provides three environment variables that allow you to override or
opt out of configuration locations:
* `SPACK_USER_CONFIG_PATH`: Override the path to use for the
`user` (`~/.spack`) scope.
* `SPACK_SYSTEM_CONFIG_PATH`: Override the path to use for the
`system` (`/etc/spack`) scope.
* `SPACK_DISABLE_LOCAL_CONFIG`: set this environment variable to completely
disable *both* the system and user configuration directories. Spack will
only consider its own defaults and `site` configuration locations.
And one that allows you to move the default cache location:
* `SPACK_USER_CACHE_PATH`: Override the default path to use for user data
(misc_cache, tests, reports, etc.)
With these settings, if you want to isolate Spack in a CI environment, you can do this:
export SPACK_DISABLE_LOCAL_CONFIG=true
export SPACK_USER_CACHE_PATH=/tmp/spack
This is a stop-gap approach until we have figured out how to deal with
the system and user config scopes more generally, as there are plans to
potentially / eventually get rid of them.
**User config**
Spack is a bit of a pain when you have:
- a shared $HOME folder across different systems.
- multiple Spack versions on the same system.
**System config**
- On shared systems with a versioned programming environment / toolkit,
system administrators want to provide config for each version (e.g.
21.09, 21.10) of the programming environment, and the user Spack
instance should be able to pick this up without a steep learning
curve.
- On shared systems the user should be able to opt out of the
hard-coded config scope in /etc/spack, since it may be incompatible
with their particular instance. Currently Spack can only opt out of all
config scopes through overrides with `"config:":`, `"packages:":`, but that
also drops the defaults config, which would have to be repeated, which
is undesirable, especially the lengthy packages.yaml.
An example use case is: having config in this folder:
```
/path/to/programming/environment/{version}/{compilers,packages}.yaml
```
and have `module load spack-system-config` set the variable
```
SPACK_SYSTEM_CONFIG_PATH=/path/to/programming/environment/{version}
```
where the user no longer has to worry about what `{version}` they are
on.
**Continuous integration**
Finally, there is the use case of continuous integration, which may
clone an arbitrary Spack version, which optimally should not pick up
system or user config from the previous run (like may happen in
classical bare metal non-containerized filesystem side effect ridden
jenkins pipelines). In fact this is very similar to how spack itself
tries to avoid picking up system dependencies during builds...
**But environments solve this?**
- You could do `include`s in environment files to get similar behavior
to the spack_system_config_path example, but environments require you
to:
1) require paths to individual config files, not directories.
2) fail if the listed config file does not exist
- They allow you to override config scopes, but this is generally too
rigurous, as it requires you to repeat the default config, in
particular packages.yaml, and just defies the point of layered config.

Any spec satisfying a default will be symlinked to `default`
If multiple specs have modulefiles in the same directory and satisfy
configured module defaults, then whichever was written last will be
default.
This PR permits to specify the `url` and `ref` of the Spack instance used in a container recipe simply by expanding the YAML schema as outlined in #20442:
```yaml
container:
images:
os: amazonlinux:2
spack:
ref: develop
resolve_sha: true
```
The `resolve_sha` option, if true, verifies the `ref` by cloning the Spack repository in a temporary directory and transforming any tag or branch name to a commit sha. When this new ability is leveraged an additional "bootstrap" stage is added, which builds an image with Spack setup and ready to install software. The Spack repository to be used can be customized with the `url` keyword under `spack`.
Modifications:
- [x] Permit to pin the version of Spack, either by branch or tag or sha
- [x] Added a few new OSes (centos:8, amazonlinux:2, ubuntu:20.04, alpine:3, cuda:11.2.1)
- [x] Permit to print the bootstrap image as a standalone
- [x] Add documentation on the new part of the schema
- [x] Add unit tests for different use cases

Using the Spec.constrain method doesn't work since it might
trigger a repository lookup which could break our directives
and triggers a circular import error.
To fix that we introduce a function to merge abstract anonymous
specs, based only on package names, which does not perform any
lookup in the repository.
The `find` command was missing for the examples forcing colorized output. Without this (or another suitable) command, spack produces output that is not using any color. Thus, without the `find` command one does not see any difference between forced colorized and non-colorized output.
Installing packages with a lot of dependencies does not have an easy way
of judging the current progress (apart from running `spack spec -I pkg`
in another terminal). This change allows Spack to update the terminal's
title with status information, including its current progress as well as
information about the current and total number of packages.
