+*Thanks for taking the time to report this build failure. To proceed with the
+report please:*
+1. Title the issue "Installation issue: <name-of-the-package>".
+2. Provide the information required below.
+3. Remove the template instructions before posting the issue.
+
+We encourage you to try, as much as possible, to reduce your problem to the minimal example that still reproduces the issue. That would help us a lot in fixing it quickly and effectively!
+
+
+---
+
+### Steps to reproduce the issue
+
+```console
+$ spack install <spec> # Fill in the exact spec you are using
+... # and the relevant part of the error message
+```
+
+### Platform and user environment
+
+Please report your OS here:
+```commandline
+$ uname -a 
+Linux nuvolari 4.15.0-29-generic #31-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 17 15:39:52 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
+$ lsb_release -d
+Description:	Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
+``` 
+and, if relevant, post or attach:
+
+- `packages.yaml`
+- `compilers.yaml`
+
+to the issue
+
+### Additional information
+
+Sometimes the issue benefits from additional details. In these cases there are
+a few things we can suggest doing. First of all, you can post the full output of:
+```console
+$ spack spec --install-status <spec>
+...
+```
+to show people whether Spack installed a faulty software or if it was not able to
+build it at all. 
+
+If your build didn't make it past the configure stage, Spack as also commands to parse 
+logs and report error and warning messages:
+```console
+$ spack log-parse --show=errors,warnings <file-to-parse>
+```
+You might want to run this command on the `config.log` or any other similar file
+found in the stage directory: 
+```console
+$ spack location -s <spec>
+```
+In case in `config.log` there are other settings that you think might be the cause 
+of the build failure, you can consider attaching the file to this issue.
+
+Rebuilding the package with the following options:
+```console
+$ spack -d install -j 1 <spec>
+...
+```
+will provide additional debug information. After the failure you will find two files in the current directory:
+
+1. `spack-cc-<spec>.in`, which contains details on the command given in input 
+    to Spack's compiler wrapper  
+1. `spack-cc-<spec>.out`, which contains the command used to compile / link the 
+    failed object after Spack's compiler wrapper did its processing 
+
+You can post or attach those files to provide maintainers with more information on what
+is causing the failure.

-# v0.18.0 (2022-05-28)
-
-`v0.18.0` is a major feature release.
-
-## Major features in this release
-
-1. **Concretizer now reuses by default**
-
-   `spack install --reuse` was introduced in `v0.17.0`, and `--reuse`
-   is now the default concretization mode. Spack will try hard to
-   resolve dependencies using installed packages or binaries (#30396).
-
-   To avoid reuse and to use the latest package configurations, (the
-   old default), you can use `spack install --fresh`, or add
-   configuration like this to your environment or `concretizer.yaml`:
-
-   ```yaml
-   concretizer:
-       reuse: false
-   ```
-
-2. **Finer-grained hashes**
-
-   Spack hashes now include `link`, `run`, *and* `build` dependencies,
-   as well as a canonical hash of package recipes. Previously, hashes
-   only included `link` and `run` dependencies (though `build`
-   dependencies were stored by environments). We coarsened the hash to
-   reduce churn in user installations, but the new default concretizer
-   behavior mitigates this concern and gets us reuse *and* provenance.
-   You will be able to see the build dependencies of new installations
-   with `spack find`. Old installations will not change and their
-   hashes will not be affected. (#28156, #28504, #30717, #30861)
-
-3. **Improved error messages**
-
-   Error handling with the new concretizer is now done with
-   optimization criteria rather than with unsatisfiable cores, and
-   Spack reports many more details about conflicting constraints.
-   (#30669)
-
-4. **Unify environments when possible**
-
-   Environments have thus far supported `concretization: together` or
-   `concretization: separately`. These have been replaced by a new
-   preference in `concretizer.yaml`:
-
-   ```yaml
-   concretizer:
-       unify: [true|false|when_possible]
-   ```
-
-   `concretizer:unify:when_possible` will *try* to resolve a fully
-   unified environment, but if it cannot, it will create multiple
-   configurations of some packages where it has to. For large
-   environments that previously had to be concretized separately, this
-   can result in a huge speedup (40-50x). (#28941)
-
-5. **Automatically find externals on Cray machines**
-
-   Spack can now automatically discover installed packages in the Cray
-   Programming Environment by running `spack external find` (or `spack
-   external read-cray-manifest` to *only* query the PE). Packages from
-   the PE (e.g., `cray-mpich` are added to the database with full
-   dependency information, and compilers from the PE are added to
-   `compilers.yaml`. Available with the June 2022 release of the Cray
-   Programming Environment. (#24894, #30428)
-
-6. **New binary format and hardened signing**
-
-   Spack now has an updated binary format, with improvements for
-   security. The new format has a detached signature file, and Spack
-   verifies the signature before untarring or decompressing the binary
-   package. The previous format embedded the signature in a `tar`
-   file, which required the client to run `tar` *before* verifying
-   (#30750). Spack can still install from build caches using the old
-   format, but we encourage users to switch to the new format going
-   forward.
-
-   Production GitLab pipelines have been hardened to securely sign
-   binaries. There is now a separate signing stage so that signing
-   keys are never exposed to build system code, and signing keys are
-   ephemeral and only live as long as the signing pipeline stage.
-   (#30753)
-
-7. **Bootstrap mirror generation**
-
-   The `spack bootstrap mirror` command can automatically create a
-   mirror for bootstrapping the concretizer and other needed
-   dependencies in an air-gapped environment. (#28556)
-
-8. **Nascent Windows support**
-
-   Spack now has initial support for Windows. Spack core has been
-   refactored to run in the Windows environment, and a small number of
-   packages can now build for Windows. More details are
-   [in the documentation](https://spack.rtfd.io/en/latest/getting_started.html#spack-on-windows)
-   (#27021, #28385, many more)
-
-9. **Makefile generation**
-
-   `spack env depfile` can be used to generate a `Makefile` from an
-   environment, which can be used to build packages the environment
-   in parallel on a single node. e.g.:
-
-   ```console
-   spack -e myenv env depfile > Makefile
-   make
-   ```
-
-   Spack propagates `gmake` jobserver information to builds so that
-   their jobs can share cores. (#30039, #30254, #30302, #30526)
-
-10. **New variant features**
-
-    In addition to being conditional themselves, variants can now have
-    [conditional *values*](https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/packaging_guide.html#conditional-possible-values)
-    that are only possible for certain configurations of a package. (#29530)
-
-    Variants can be
-    [declared "sticky"](https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/packaging_guide.html#sticky-variants),
-    which prevents them from being enabled or disabled by the
-    concretizer. Sticky variants must be set explicitly by users
-    on the command line or in `packages.yaml`. (#28630)
-
-* Allow conditional possible values in variants
-* Add a "sticky" property to variants
-
-
-## Other new features of note
-
-* Environment views can optionally link only `run` dependencies
-  with `link:run` (#29336)
-* `spack external find --all` finds library-only packages in
-  addition to build dependencies (#28005)
-* Customizable `config:license_dir` option (#30135)
-* `spack external find --path PATH` takes a custom search path (#30479)
-* `spack spec` has a new `--format` argument like `spack find` (#27908)
-* `spack concretize --quiet` skips printing concretized specs (#30272)
-* `spack info` now has cleaner output and displays test info (#22097)
-* Package-level submodule option for git commit versions (#30085, #30037)
-* Using `/hash` syntax to refer to concrete specs in an environment
-  now works even if `/hash` is not installed. (#30276)
-
-## Major internal refactors
-
-* full hash (see above)
-* new develop versioning scheme `0.19.0-dev0`
-* Allow for multiple dependencies/dependents from the same package (#28673)
-* Splice differing virtual packages (#27919)
-
-## Performance Improvements
-
-* Concretization of large environments with `unify: when_possible` is
-  much faster than concretizing separately (#28941, see above)
-* Single-pass view generation algorithm is 2.6x faster (#29443)
-
-## Archspec improvements
-
-* `oneapi` and `dpcpp` flag support (#30783)
-* better support for `M1` and `a64fx` (#30683)
-
-## Removals and Deprecations
-
-* Spack no longer supports Python `2.6` (#27256)
-* Removed deprecated `--run-tests` option of `spack install`;
-  use `spack test` (#30461)
-* Removed deprecated `spack flake8`; use `spack style` (#27290)
-
-* Deprecate `spack:concretization` config option; use
-  `concretizer:unify` (#30038)
-* Deprecate top-level module configuration; use module sets (#28659)
-* `spack activate` and `spack deactivate` are deprecated in favor of
-  environments; will be removed in `0.19.0` (#29430; see also `link:run`
-  in #29336 above)
-
-## Notable Bugfixes
-
-* Fix bug that broke locks with many parallel builds (#27846)
-* Many bugfixes and consistency improvements for the new concretizer
-  and `--reuse` (#30357, #30092, #29835, #29933, #28605, #29694, #28848)
-
-## Packages
-
-* `CMakePackage` uses `CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH` (#29703)
-* Refactored `lua` support: `lua-lang` virtual supports both
-  `lua` and `luajit` via new `LuaPackage` build system(#28854)
-* PythonPackage: now installs packages with `pip` (#27798)
-* Python: improve site_packages_dir handling (#28346)
-* Extends: support spec, not just package name (#27754)
-* `find_libraries`: search for both .so and .dylib on macOS (#28924)
-* Use stable URLs and `?full_index=1` for all github patches (#29239)

-# v0.17.0 (2021-11-05)
-
-`v0.17.0` is a major feature release.
-
-## Major features in this release
-
-1. **New concretizer is now default**
-   The new concretizer introduced as an experimental feature in `v0.16.0`
-   is now the default (#25502). The new concretizer is based on the
-   [clingo](https://github.com/potassco/clingo) logic programming system,
-   and it enables us to do much higher quality and faster dependency solving
-   The old concretizer is still available via the `concretizer: original`
-   setting, but it is deprecated and will be removed in `v0.18.0`.
-
-2. **Binary Bootstrapping**
-   To make it easier to use the new concretizer and binary packages,
-   Spack now bootstraps `clingo` and `GnuPG` from public binaries. If it
-   is not able to bootstrap them from binaries, it installs them from
-   source code. With these changes, you should still be able to clone Spack
-   and start using it almost immediately. (#21446, #22354, #22489, #22606,
-   #22720, #22720, #23677, #23946, #24003, #25138, #25607, #25964, #26029,
-   #26399, #26599).
-
-3. **Reuse existing packages (experimental)**
-   The most wanted feature from our
-   [2020 user survey](https://spack.io/spack-user-survey-2020/) and
-   the most wanted Spack feature of all time (#25310). `spack install`,
-   `spack spec`, and `spack concretize` now have a `--reuse` option, which
-   causes Spack to minimize the number of rebuilds it does. The `--reuse`
-   option will try to find existing installations and binary packages locally
-   and in registered mirrors, and will prefer to use them over building new
-   versions. This will allow users to build from source *far* less than in
-   prior versions of Spack. This feature will continue to be improved, with
-   configuration options and better CLI expected in `v0.17.1`. It will become
-   the *default* concretization mode in `v0.18.0`.
-
-4. **Better error messages**
-   We have improved the error messages generated by the new concretizer by
-   using *unsatisfiable cores*. Spack will now print a summary of the types
-   of constraints that were violated to make a spec unsatisfiable (#26719).
-
-5. **Conditional variants**
-   Variants can now have a `when="<spec>"` clause, allowing them to be
-   conditional based on the version or other attributes of a package (#24858).
-
-6. **Git commit versions**
-   In an environment and on the command-line, you can now provide a full,
-   40-character git commit as a version for any package with a top-level
-   `git` URL.  e.g., `spack install hdf5@45bb27f58240a8da7ebb4efc821a1a964d7712a8`.
-   Spack will compare the commit to tags in the git repository to understand
-   what versions it is ahead of or behind.
-
-7. **Override local config and cache directories**
-   You can now set `SPACK_DISABLE_LOCAL_CONFIG` to disable the `~/.spack` and
-   `/etc/spack` configuration scopes. `SPACK_USER_CACHE_PATH` allows you to
-   move caches out of `~/.spack`, as well (#27022, #26735). This addresses
-   common problems where users could not isolate CI environments from local
-   configuration.
-
-8. **Improvements to Spack Containerize**
-   For added reproducibility, you can now pin the Spack version used by
-   `spack containerize` (#21910). The container build will only build
-   with the Spack version pinned at build recipe creation instead of the
-   latest Spack version.
-
-9. **New commands for dealing with tags**
-   The `spack tags` command allows you to list tags on packages (#26136), and you
-   can list tests and filter tags with `spack test list` (#26842).
-

-
-
-# v0.16.0 (2020-11-18)
-
-`v0.16.0` is a major feature release.
-
-## Major features in this release
-
-1. **New concretizer (experimental)** Our new backtracking concretizer is
-   now in Spack as an experimental feature. You will need to install
-   `clingo@master+python` and set `concretizer: clingo` in `config.yaml`
-   to use it. The original concretizer is not exhaustive and is not
-   guaranteed to find a solution if one exists. We encourage you to use
-   the new concretizer and to report any bugs you find with it. We
-   anticipate making the new concretizer the default and including all
-   required dependencies for it in Spack `v0.17`. For more details, see
-   #19501.
-
-2. **spack test (experimental)** Users can add `test()` methods to their
-   packages to run smoke tests on installations with the new `spack test`
-   command (the old `spack test` is now `spack unit-test`). `spack test`
-   is environment-aware, so you can `spack install` an environment and
-   `spack test run` smoke tests on all of its packages. Historical test
-   logs can be perused with `spack test results`. Generic smoke tests for
-   MPI implementations, C, C++, and Fortran compilers as well as specific
-   smoke tests for 18 packages. This is marked experimental because the
-   test API (`self.run_test()`) is likely to be change, but we encourage
-   users to upstream tests, and we will maintain and refactor any that
-   are added to mainline packages (#15702).
-
-3. **spack develop** New `spack develop` command allows you to develop
-   several packages at once within a Spack environment. Running
-   `spack develop foo@v1` and `spack develop bar@v2` will check
-    out specific versions of `foo` and `bar` into subdirectories, which you
-    can then build incrementally with `spack install ` (#15256).
-
-4. **More parallelism** Spack previously installed the dependencies of a
-   _single_ spec in parallel. Entire environments can now be installed in
-   parallel, greatly accelerating builds of large environments. get
-   parallelism from individual specs. Spack now parallelizes entire
-   environment builds (#18131).
-
-5. **Customizable base images for spack containerize**
-    `spack containerize` previously only output a `Dockerfile` based
-    on `ubuntu`. You may now specify any base image of your choosing (#15028).
-
-6. **more external finding** `spack external find` was added in `v0.15`,
-   but only `cmake` had support. `spack external find` can now find
-   `bison`, `cuda`, `findutils`, `flex`, `git`, `lustre` `m4`, `mpich`,
-   `mvapich2`, `ncurses`, `openmpi`, `perl`, `spectrum-mpi`, `tar`, and
-   `texinfo` on your system and add them automatically to
-   `packages.yaml`.
-
-7. **Support aocc, nvhpc, and oneapi compilers** We are aggressively
-   pursuing support for the newest vendor compilers, especially those for
-   the U.S. exascale and pre-exascale systems. Compiler classes and
-   auto-detection for `aocc`, `nvhpc`, `oneapi` are now in Spack (#19345,
-   #19294, #19330).
-
-## Additional new features of note
-
-* New `spack mark` command can be used to designate packages as explicitly
-  installed, so that `spack gc` will not garbage-collect them (#16662).
-* `install_tree` can be customized with Spack's projection format (#18341)
-* `sbang` now lives in the `install_tree` so that all users can access it (#11598)
-* `csh` and `tcsh` users no longer need to set `SPACK_ROOT` before
-  sourcing `setup-env.csh` (#18225)
-* Spec syntax now supports `variant=*` syntax for finding any package
-  that has a particular variant (#19381).
-* Spack respects `SPACK_GNUPGHOME` variable for custom GPG directories (#17139)
-* Spack now recognizes Graviton chips
-
-## Major refactors
-
-* Use spawn instead of fork on Python >= 3.8 on macOS (#18205)
-* Use indexes for public build caches (#19101, #19117, #19132, #19141,  #19209)
-* `sbang` is an external package now (https://github.com/spack/sbang, #19582)
-* `archspec` is an external package now (https://github.com/archspec/archspec, #19600)
-
-## Deprecations and Removals
-
-* `spack bootstrap` was deprecated in v0.14.0, and has now been removed.
-* `spack setup` is deprecated as of v0.16.0.
-* What was `spack test` is now called `spack unit-test`. `spack test` is
-  now the smoke testing feature in (2) above.
-
-## Bugfixes
-
-Some of the most notable bugfixes in this release include:
-
-* Better warning messages for deprecated syntax in `packages.yaml` (#18013)
-* `buildcache list --allarch` now works properly (#17827)
-* Many fixes and tests for buildcaches and binary relcoation (#15687,
-  *#17455, #17418, #17455, #15687, #18110)
-
-## Package Improvements
-
-Spack now has 5050 total packages, 720 of which were added since `v0.15`.
-
-* ROCm packages (`hip`, `aomp`, more) added by AMD (#19957, #19832, others)
-* Many improvements for ARM support
-* `llvm-flang`, `flang`, and `f18` removed, as `llvm` has real `flang`
-  support since Flang was merged to LLVM mainline
-* Emerging support for `spack external find` and `spack test` in packages.
-
-## Infrastructure
-
-* Major infrastructure improvements to pipelines on `gitlab.spack.io`
-* Support for testing PRs from forks (#19248) is being enabled for all
-  forks to enable rolling, up-to-date binary builds on `develop`
-
-

-
-# v0.15.0 (2020-06-28)
-
-`v0.15.0` is a major feature release.
-
-## Major Features in this release
-
-1. **Cray support** Spack will now work properly on Cray "Cluster"
-systems (non XC systems) and after a `module purge` command on Cray
-systems. See #12989
-
-2. **Virtual package configuration** Virtual packages are allowed in
-packages.yaml configuration. This allows users to specify a virtual
-package as non-buildable without needing to specify for each
-implementation. See #14934
-
-3. **New config subcommands** This release adds `spack config add` and
-`spack config remove` commands to add to and remove from yaml
-configuration files from the CLI. See #13920
-
-4. **Environment activation** Anonymous environments are **no longer**
-automatically activated in the current working directory. To activate
-an environment from a `spack.yaml` file in the current directory, use
-the `spack env activate .` command. This removes a concern that users
-were too easily polluting their anonymous environments with accidental
-installations. See #17258
-
-5. **Apple clang compiler** The clang compiler and the apple-clang
-compiler are now separate compilers in Spack. This allows Spack to
-improve support for the apple-clang compiler. See #17110
-
-6. **Finding external packages** Spack packages can now support an API
-for finding external installations. This allows the `spack external
-find` command to automatically add installations of those packages to
-the user's configuration. See #15158
-
-
-## Additional new features of note

-
-* Spack environments can now contain the string `-h` (#15429)
-* The `spack install` gracefully handles being backgrounded (#15723, #14682)
-* Spack uses `-isystem` instead of `-I` in cases that the underlying build system does as well (#16077)

-* GCC now builds properly on ARM architectures (#17280)
-* Python: patched to support compiling mixed C/C++ python modules through distutils (#16856)
-* improvements to pytorch and py-tensorflow packages
-* improvements to major MPI implementations: mvapich2, mpich, openmpi, and others
-
-## Spack Project Management:
-
-* Much of the Spack CI infrastructure has moved from Travis to GitHub Actions (#16610, #14220, #16345)
-* All merges to the `develop` branch run E4S CI pipeline (#16338)
-* New `spack debug report` command makes reporting bugs easier (#15834)
-
-# v0.14.2 (2020-04-15)
-
-This is a minor release on the `0.14` series. It includes performance
-improvements and bug fixes:
-
-* Improvements to how `spack install` handles foreground/background (#15723)
-* Major performance improvements for reading the package DB (#14693, #15777)
-* No longer check for the old `index.yaml` database file (#15298)
-* Properly activate environments with '-h' in the name (#15429)
-* External packages have correct `.prefix` in environments/views (#15475)
-* Improvements to computing env modifications from sourcing files (#15791)
-* Bugfix on Cray machines when getting `TERM` env variable (#15630)
-* Avoid adding spurious `LMOD` env vars to Intel modules (#15778)
-* Don't output [+] for mock installs run during tests (#15609)
-
-# v0.14.1 (2020-03-20)
-
-This is a bugfix release on top of `v0.14.0`.  Specific fixes include:
-
-* several bugfixes for parallel installation (#15339, #15341, #15220, #15197)
-* `spack load` now works with packages that have been renamed (#14348)
-* bugfix for `suite-sparse` installation (#15326)
-* deduplicate identical suffixes added to module names (#14920)
-* fix issues with `configure_args` during module refresh (#11084)
-* increased test coverage and test fixes (#15237, #15354, #15346)
-* remove some unused code (#15431)
-
-# v0.14.0 (2020-02-23)
-
-`v0.14.0` is a major feature release, with 3 highlighted features:
-
-1. **Distributed builds.** Multiple Spack instances will now coordinate
-   properly with each other through locks. This works on a single node
-   (where you've called `spack` several times) or across multiple nodes
-   with a shared filesystem. For example, with SLURM, you could build
-   `trilinos` and its dependencies on 2 24-core nodes, with 3 Spack
-   instances per node and 8 build jobs per instance, with `srun -N 2 -n 6
-   spack install -j 8 trilinos`. This requires a filesystem with locking
-   enabled, but not MPI or any other library for parallelism.
-
-2.  **Build pipelines.** You can also build in parallel through Gitlab
-   CI. Simply create a Spack environment and push it to Gitlab to build
-   on Gitlab runners. Pipeline support is now integrated into a single
-   `spack ci` command, so setting it up is easier than ever.  See the
-   [Pipelines section](https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/v0.14.0/pipelines.html)
-   in the docs.
-
-3. **Container builds.** The new `spack containerize` command allows you
-   to create a Docker or Singularity recipe from any Spack environment.
-   There are options to customize the build if you need them. See the
-   [Container Images section](https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/containers.html)
-   in the docs.
-
-In addition, there are several other new commands, many bugfixes and
-improvements, and `spack load` no longer requires modules, so you can use
-it the same way on your laptop or on your supercomputer.
-
-Spack grew by over 300 packages since our last release in November 2019,
-and the project grew to over 500 contributors.  Thanks to all of you for
-making yet another great release possible. Detailed notes below.

-For multi-user site deployments or other use cases that need very stable
-software installations, we recommend using Spack's
-[stable releases](https://github.com/spack/spack/releases).
-
-Each Spack release series also has a corresponding branch, e.g.
-`releases/v0.14` has `0.14.x` versions of Spack, and `releases/v0.13` has
-`0.13.x` versions. We backport important bug fixes to these branches but
-we do not advance the package versions or make other changes that would
-change the way Spack concretizes dependencies within a release branch.
-So, you can base your Spack deployment on a release branch and `git pull`
-to get fixes, without the package churn that comes with `develop`.
-
-The latest release is always available with the `releases/latest` tag.

 # `sbang`: Run scripts with long shebang lines.
 #
-# Many operating systems limit the length and number of possible
-# arguments in shebang lines, making it hard to use interpreters that are
-# deep in the directory hierarchy or require special arguments.
+# Many operating systems limit the length of shebang lines, making it
+# hard to use interpreters that are deep in the directory hierarchy.
+# `sbang` can run such scripts, either as a shebang interpreter, or
+# directly on the command line.
 #
-# To use, put the long shebang on the second line of your script, and
-# make sbang the interpreter, like this:
+# Usage
+# -----------------------------
+# Suppose you have a script, long-shebang.sh, like this:
 #
-#     #!/bin/sh /path/to/sbang
-#     #!/long/path/to/real/interpreter with arguments
+#     1    #!/very/long/path/to/some/interpreter
+#     2
+#     3    echo "success!"
 #
-# `sbang` will run the real interpreter with the script as its argument.
+# Invoking this script will result in an error on some OS's.  On
+# Linux, you get this:
 #
-# See https://github.com/spack/sbang for more details.
+#     $ ./long-shebang.sh
+#     -bash: ./long: /very/long/path/to/some/interp: bad interpreter:
+#            No such file or directory
+#
+# On Mac OS X, the system simply assumes the interpreter is the shell
+# and tries to run with it, which is likely not what you want.
+#
+#
+# `sbang` on the command line
+# -----------------------------
+# You can use `sbang` in two ways.  The first is to use it directly,
+# from the command line, like this:
+#
+#     $ sbang ./long-shebang.sh
+#     success!
+#
+#
+# `sbang` as the interpreter
+# -----------------------------
+# You can also use `sbang` *as* the interpreter for your script. Put
+# `#!/bin/bash /path/to/sbang` on line 1, and move the original
+# shebang to line 2 of the script:
+#
+#     1    #!/bin/bash /path/to/sbang
+#     2    #!/long/path/to/real/interpreter with arguments
+#     3
+#     4    echo "success!"
+#
+#     $ ./long-shebang.sh
+#     success!
+#
+# On Linux, you could shorten line 1 to `#!/path/to/sbang`, but other
+# operating systems like Mac OS X require the interpreter to be a
+# binary, so it's best to use `sbang` as a `bash` argument.
+# Obviously, for this to work, `sbang` needs to have a short enough
+# path that *it* will run without hitting OS limits.
+#
+# For Lua, scripts the second line can't start with #!, as # is not
+# the comment character in lua (even though lua ignores #! on the
+# *first* line of a script).  So, instrument a lua script like this,
+# using -- instead of # on the second line:
+#
+#     1    #!/bin/bash /path/to/sbang
+#     2    --!/long/path/to/lua with arguments
+#     3
+#     4    print "success!"
+#
+# How it works
+# -----------------------------
+# `sbang` is a very simple bash script. It looks at the first two
+# lines of a script argument and runs the last line starting with
+# `#!`, with the script as an argument. It also forwards arguments.

-:: 'spack load' is smarter than just 'load' because it converts its

-:: commands.  This allows the user to use packages without knowing all

-::
-:: e.g., rather than requiring a full spec for libelf, the user can type:
-::
-::     spack load libelf
-::
-:: This will first find the available libelf module file and use a

-:: need to be more specific, e.g.:
-::
-::     spack load libelf@0.8.13

-=======

-The analyze command is a front-end to various tools that let us analyze
-package installations. Each analyzer is a module for a different kind
-of analysis that can be done on a package installation, including (but not
-limited to) binary, log, or text analysis. Thus, the analyze command group
-allows you to take an existing package install, choose an analyzer,
-and extract some output for the package using it.
-
-
------------------
-Analyzer Metadata
------------------
-
-For all analyzers, we write to an ``analyzers`` folder in ``~/.spack``, or the
-value that you specify in your spack config at ``config:analyzers_dir``. 
-For example, here we see the results of running an analysis on zlib:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ tree ~/.spack/analyzers/
-    └── linux-ubuntu20.04-skylake
-        └── gcc-9.3.0
-            └── zlib-1.2.11-sl7m27mzkbejtkrajigj3a3m37ygv4u2

-                │   └── spack-analyzer-environment-variables.json

-    
-
-This means that you can always find analyzer output in this folder, and it
-is organized with the same logic as the package install it was run for.

-Listing Analyzers
------------------
-
-If you aren't familiar with Spack's analyzers, you can quickly list those that 
-are available:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack analyze list-analyzers
-    install_files            : install file listing read from install_manifest.json
-    environment_variables    : environment variables parsed from spack-build-env.txt
-    config_args              : config args loaded from spack-configure-args.txt
-    libabigail               : Application Binary Interface (ABI) features for objects
-
-
-In the above, the first three are fairly simple - parsing metadata files from
-a package install directory to save
-
--------------------
-Analyzing a Package
--------------------
-
-The analyze command, akin to install, will accept a package spec to perform
-an analysis for. The package must be installed. Let's walk through an example
-with zlib. We first ask to analyze it. However, since we have more than one
-install, we are asked to disambiguate:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack analyze run zlib
-    ==> Error: zlib matches multiple packages.
-      Matching packages:
-        fz2bs56 zlib@1.2.11%gcc@7.5.0 arch=linux-ubuntu18.04-skylake
-        sl7m27m zlib@1.2.11%gcc@9.3.0 arch=linux-ubuntu20.04-skylake
-      Use a more specific spec.
-
-
-We can then specify the spec version that we want to analyze:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack analyze run zlib/fz2bs56
-
-If you don't provide any specific analyzer names, by default all analyzers 
-(shown in the ``list-analyzers`` subcommand list) will be run. If an analyzer does not
-have any result, it will be skipped. For example, here is a result running for
-zlib:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ ls ~/.spack/analyzers/linux-ubuntu20.04-skylake/gcc-9.3.0/zlib-1.2.11-sl7m27mzkbejtkrajigj3a3m37ygv4u2/
-    spack-analyzer-environment-variables.json
-    spack-analyzer-install-files.json
-    spack-analyzer-libabigail-libz.so.1.2.11.xml
-
-If you want to run a specific analyzer, ask for it with `--analyzer`. Here we run
-spack analyze on libabigail (already installed) _using_ libabigail1
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack analyze run --analyzer abigail libabigail
-
-
-.. _analyze_monitoring:
-
-----------------------
-Monitoring An Analysis
-----------------------
-
-For any kind of analysis, you can
-use a `spack monitor <https://github.com/spack/spack-monitor>`_ "Spackmon"
-as a server to upload the same run metadata to. You can
-follow the instructions in the `spack monitor documentation <https://spack-monitor.readthedocs.org>`_
-to first create a server along with a username and token for yourself.
-You can then use this guide to interact with the server.
-
-You should first export our spack monitor token and username to the environment:
-
-.. code-block:: console
- 
-    $ export SPACKMON_TOKEN=50445263afd8f67e59bd79bff597836ee6c05438
-    $ export SPACKMON_USER=spacky
-
-
-By default, the host for your server is expected to be at ``http://127.0.0.1``
-with a prefix of ``ms1``, and if this is the case, you can simply add the
-``--monitor`` flag to the install command:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack analyze run --monitor wget
-
-If you need to customize the host or the prefix, you can do that as well:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack analyze run --monitor --monitor-prefix monitor --monitor-host https://monitor-service.io wget
-
-If your server doesn't have authentication, you can skip it:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack analyze run --monitor --monitor-disable-auth wget
-    
-Regardless of your choice, when you run analyze on an installed package (whether
-it was installed with ``--monitor`` or not, you'll see the results generating as they did
-before, and a message that the monitor server was pinged:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack analyze --monitor wget
-    ...
-    ==> Sending result for wget bin/wget to monitor.

+Deprecating insecure packages
+-----------------------------
+
+``spack deprecate`` allows for the removal of insecure packages with
+minimal impact to their dependents.
+
+.. warning::
+
+  The ``spack deprecate`` command is designed for use only in
+  extraordinary circumstances. This is a VERY big hammer to be used
+  with care.
+
+The ``spack deprecate`` command will remove one package and replace it
+with another by replacing the deprecated package's prefix with a link
+to the deprecator package's prefix.
+
+.. warning::
+
+  The ``spack deprecate`` command makes no promises about binary
+  compatibility. It is up to the user to ensure the deprecator is
+  suitable for the deprecated package.
+
+Spack tracks concrete deprecated specs and ensures that no future packages
+concretize to a deprecated spec.
+
+The first spec given to the ``spack deprecate`` command is the package
+to deprecate. It is an abstract spec that must describe a single
+installed package. The second spec argument is the deprecator
+spec. By default it must be an abstract spec that describes a single
+installed package, but with the ``-i/--install-deprecator`` it can be
+any abstract spec that Spack will install and then use as the
+deprecator. The ``-I/--no-install-deprecator`` option will ensure
+the default behavior.
+
+By default, ``spack deprecate`` will deprecate all dependencies of the
+deprecated spec, replacing each by the dependency of the same name in
+the deprecator spec. The ``-d/--dependencies`` option will ensure the
+default, while the ``-D/--no-dependencies`` option will deprecate only
+the root of the deprecate spec in favor of the root of the deprecator
+spec.
+
+``spack deprecate`` can use symbolic links or hard links. The default
+behavior is symbolic links, but the ``-l/--link-type`` flag can take
+options ``hard`` or ``soft``.
+
+-----------------------
+Verifying installations
+-----------------------
+
+The ``spack verify`` command can be used to verify the validity of
+Spack-installed packages any time after installation.
+
+At installation time, Spack creates a manifest of every file in the
+installation prefix. For links, Spack tracks the mode, ownership, and
+destination. For directories, Spack tracks the mode, and
+ownership. For files, Spack tracks the mode, ownership, modification
+time, hash, and size. The Spack verify command will check, for every
+file in each package, whether any of those attributes have changed. It
+will also check for newly added files or deleted files from the
+installation prefix. Spack can either check all installed packages
+using the `-a,--all` or accept specs listed on the command line to
+verify.
+
+The ``spack verify`` command can also verify for individual files that
+they haven't been altered since installation time. If the given file
+is not in a Spack installation prefix, Spack will report that it is
+not owned by any package. To check individual files instead of specs,
+use the ``-f,--files`` option.
+
+Spack installation manifests are part of the tarball signed by Spack
+for binary package distribution. When installed from a binary package,
+Spack uses the packaged installation manifest instead of creating one
+at install time.
+
+The ``spack verify`` command also accepts the ``-l,--local`` option to
+check only local packages (as opposed to those used transparently from
+``upstream`` spack instances) and the ``-j,--json`` option to output
+machine-readable json data for any errors.

-If you have :ref:`shell support <shell-support>` enabled you can use the
-``spack load`` command to quickly get a package on your ``PATH``.
-
-For example this will add the ``mpich`` package built with ``gcc`` to
-your path:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ spack install mpich %gcc@4.4.7
-
-   # ... wait for install ...

-   $ which mpicc
-   ~/spack/opt/linux-debian7-x86_64/gcc@4.4.7/mpich@3.0.4/bin/mpicc
-
-These commands will add appropriate directories to your ``PATH``,
-``MANPATH``, ``CPATH``, and ``LD_LIBRARY_PATH`` according to the
-:ref:`prefix inspections <customize-env-modifications>` defined in your
-modules configuration.
-When you no longer want to use a package, you can type unload or

-You can either type the ``spack load`` command again with a fully

-that one ``libelf`` is built with the Intel compiler, while the other
-used ``gcc``.  You could therefore just type:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ spack load libelf %intel
-
-To identify just the one built with the Intel compiler. If you want to be
-*very* specific, you can load it by its hash. For example, to load the
-first ``libelf`` above, you would run:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ spack load /qmm4kso

-The ``spack deprecate`` command will remove one package and replace it
-with another by replacing the deprecated package's prefix with a link

-
-.. warning::
-
-  The ``spack deprecate`` command makes no promises about binary
-  compatibility. It is up to the user to ensure the deprecator is
-  suitable for the deprecated package.
-
-Spack tracks concrete deprecated specs and ensures that no future packages
-concretize to a deprecated spec.
-
-The first spec given to the ``spack deprecate`` command is the package
-to deprecate. It is an abstract spec that must describe a single
-installed package. The second spec argument is the deprecator
-spec. By default it must be an abstract spec that describes a single
-installed package, but with the ``-i/--install-deprecator`` it can be
-any abstract spec that Spack will install and then use as the
-deprecator. The ``-I/--no-install-deprecator`` option will ensure

-
-By default, ``spack deprecate`` will deprecate all dependencies of the
-deprecated spec, replacing each by the dependency of the same name in
-the deprecator spec. The ``-d/--dependencies`` option will ensure the

-At installation time, Spack creates a manifest of every file in the
-installation prefix. For links, Spack tracks the mode, ownership, and
-destination. For directories, Spack tracks the mode, and
-ownership. For files, Spack tracks the mode, ownership, modification
-time, hash, and size. The Spack verify command will check, for every
-file in each package, whether any of those attributes have changed. It
-will also check for newly added files or deleted files from the
-installation prefix. Spack can either check all installed packages
-using the `-a,--all` or accept specs listed on the command line to
-verify.
-
-The ``spack verify`` command can also verify for individual files that
-they haven't been altered since installation time. If the given file
-is not in a Spack installation prefix, Spack will report that it is
-not owned by any package. To check individual files instead of specs,
-use the ``-f,--files`` option.
-
-Spack installation manifests are part of the tarball signed by Spack
-for binary package distribution. When installed from a binary package,
-Spack uses the packaged installation manifest instead of creating one
-at install time.

-The ``spack verify`` command also accepts the ``-l,--local`` option to

-is an entire command dedicated to the management of every aspect of bootstrapping:
-
-.. command-output:: spack bootstrap --help
-
-The first thing to know to understand bootstrapping in Spack is that each of
-Spack's dependencies is bootstrapped lazily; i.e. the first time it is needed and
-can't be found. You can readily check if any prerequisite for using Spack
-is missing by running:

-
-   [FAIL] Binary packages
-     [B] MISSING "gpg2": required to sign/verify buildcaches
-
-
-   Spack will take care of bootstrapping any missing dependency marked as [B]. Dependencies marked as [-] are instead required to be found on the system.
-
-In the case of the output shown above Spack detected that both ``clingo`` and ``gnupg``
-are missing and it's giving detailed information on why they are needed and whether
-they can be bootstrapped. Running a command that concretize a spec, like:

-
-The software installed for bootstrapping purposes is deployed in a separate store.
-Its location can be checked with the following command:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack bootstrap root
-
-It can also be changed with the same command by just specifying the newly desired path:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack bootstrap root /opt/spack/bootstrap
-
-You can check what is installed in the bootstrapping store at any time using:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack find -b
-   ==> Showing internal bootstrap store at "/Users/spack/.spack/bootstrap/store"

-
-In case it is needed you can remove all the software in the current bootstrapping store with:

-Enabling and disabling bootstrapping methods
---------------------------------------------
-
-Bootstrapping is always performed by trying the methods listed by:
-
-.. command-output:: spack bootstrap list
-
-in the order they appear, from top to bottom. By default Spack is
-configured to try first bootstrapping from pre-built binaries and to
-fall-back to bootstrapping from sources if that failed.
-
-If need be, you can disable bootstrapping altogether by running:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack bootstrap disable
-
-in which case it's your responsibility to ensure Spack runs in an
-environment where all its prerequisites are installed. You can
-also configure Spack to skip certain bootstrapping methods by *untrusting*
-them. For instance:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack bootstrap untrust github-actions
-   ==> "github-actions" is now untrusted and will not be used for bootstrapping
-
-tells Spack to skip trying to bootstrap from binaries. To add the "github-actions" method back you can:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack bootstrap trust github-actions
-
-There is also an option to reset the bootstrapping configuration to Spack's defaults:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack bootstrap reset
-   ==> Bootstrapping configuration is being reset to Spack's defaults. Current configuration will be lost.

-.. _cmd-spack-external-find:
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Automatically Find External Packages
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-You can run the :ref:`spack external find <spack-external-find>` command
-to search for system-provided packages and add them to ``packages.yaml``.
-After running this command your ``packages.yaml`` may include new entries:
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-   packages:
-     cmake:
-       externals:
-       - spec: cmake@3.17.2
-         prefix: /usr
-
-Generally this is useful for detecting a small set of commonly-used packages;
-for now this is generally limited to finding build-only dependencies.
-Specific limitations include:
-
-* Packages are not discoverable by default: For a package to be
-  discoverable with ``spack external find``, it needs to add special
-  logic. See :ref:`here <make-package-findable>` for more details.
-* The current implementation only collects and examines executable files,
-  so it is typically only useful for build/run dependencies (in some cases
-  if a library package also provides an executable, it may be possible to
-  extract a meaningful Spec by running the executable - for example the
-  compiler wrappers in MPI implementations).
-* The logic does not search through module files, it can only detect
-  packages with executables defined in ``PATH``; you can help Spack locate
-  externals which use module files by loading any associated modules for
-  packages that you want Spack to know about before running
-  ``spack external find``.
-* Spack does not overwrite existing entries in the package configuration:
-  If there is an external defined for a spec at any configuration scope,
-  then Spack will not add a new external entry (``spack config blame packages``
-  can help locate all external entries).
-
-.. _concretizer-options:
-
-----------------------
-Concretizer options
-----------------------
-
-``packages.yaml`` gives the concretizer preferences for specific packages,
-but you can also use ``concretizer.yaml`` to customize aspects of the
-algorithm it uses to select the dependencies you install:
-
-.. literalinclude:: _spack_root/etc/spack/defaults/concretizer.yaml
-   :language: yaml
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Reuse already installed packages
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The ``reuse`` attribute controls whether Spack will prefer to use installed packages (``true``), or
-whether it will do a "fresh" installation and prefer the latest settings from
-``package.py`` files and ``packages.yaml`` (``false``).
-You can use:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack install --reuse <spec>
-
-to enable reuse for a single installation, and you can use:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   spack install --fresh <spec>
-
-to do a fresh install if ``reuse`` is enabled by default.
-``reuse: true`` is the default.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Selection of the target microarchitectures
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The options under the ``targets`` attribute control which targets are considered during a solve.
-Currently the options in this section are only configurable from the ``concretization.yaml`` file
-and there are no corresponding command line arguments to enable them for a single solve.
-
-The ``granularity`` option can take two possible values: ``microarchitectures`` and ``generic``.
-If set to:
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-   concretizer:
-     targets:
-       granularity: microarchitectures
-
-Spack will consider all the microarchitectures known to ``archspec`` to label nodes for
-compatibility. If instead the option is set to:
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-   concretizer:
-     targets:
-       granularity: generic
-
-Spack will consider only generic microarchitectures. For instance, when running on an
-Haswell node, Spack will consider ``haswell`` as the best target in the former case and
-``x86_64_v3`` as the best target in the latter case.
-
-The ``host_compatible`` option is a Boolean option that determines whether or not the
-microarchitectures considered during the solve are constrained to be compatible with the
-host Spack is currently running on. For instance, if this option is set to ``true``, a
-user cannot concretize for ``target=icelake`` while running on an Haswell node.

-CachedCMakePackage
-------------------
-
-The CachedCMakePackage base class is used for CMake-based workflows
-that create a CMake cache file prior to running ``cmake``. This is
-useful for packages with arguments longer than the system limit, and
-for reproducibility.
-
-The documentation for this class assumes that the user is familiar with
-the ``CMakePackage`` class from which it inherits. See the documentation
-for :ref:`CMakePackage <cmakepackage>`.
-
-^^^^^^
-Phases
-^^^^^^
-
-The ``CachedCMakePackage`` base class comes with the following phases:
-
-#. ``initconfig`` - generate the CMake cache file
-#. ``cmake`` - generate the Makefile
-#. ``build`` - build the package
-#. ``install`` - install the package
-
-By default, these phases run:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ mkdir spack-build
-   $ cd spack-build
-   $ cat << EOF > name-arch-compiler@version.cmake
-   # Write information on compilers and dependencies
-   # includes information on mpi and cuda if applicable
-   $ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/installation/prefix -C name-arch-compiler@version.cmake
-   $ make
-   $ make test  # optional
-   $ make install
-
-The ``CachedCMakePackage`` class inherits from the ``CMakePackage``
-class, and accepts all of the same options and adds all of the same
-flags to the ``cmake`` command. Similar to the ``CMakePAckage`` class,
-you may need to add a few arguments yourself, and the
-``CachedCMakePackage`` provides the same interface to add those
-flags.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Adding entries to the CMake cache
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-In addition to adding flags to the ``cmake`` command, you may need to
-add entries to the CMake cache in the ``initconfig`` phase. This can
-be done by overriding one of four methods:
-
-#. ``CachedCMakePackage.initconfig_compiler_entries``
-#. ``CachedCMakePackage.initconfig_mpi_entries``
-#. ``CachedCMakePackage.initconfig_hardware_entries``
-#. ``CachedCMakePackage.initconfig_package_entries``
-
-Each of these methods returns a list of CMake cache strings. The
-distinction between these methods is merely to provide a
-well-structured and legible cmake cache file -- otherwise, entries
-from each of these methods are handled identically.
-
-Spack also provides convenience methods for generating CMake cache
-entries. These methods are available at module scope in every Spack
-package. Because CMake parses boolean options, strings, and paths
-differently, there are three such methods:
-
-#. ``cmake_cache_option``
-#. ``cmake_cache_string``
-#. ``cmake_cache_path``
-
-These methods each accept three parameters -- the name of the CMake
-variable associated with the entry, the value of the entry, and an
-optional comment -- and return strings in the appropriate format to be
-returned from any of the ``initconfig*`` methods. Additionally, these
-methods may return comments beginning with the ``#`` character.
-
-A typical usage of these methods may look something like this:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   def initconfig_mpi_entries(self)
-       # Get existing MPI configurations
-       entries = super(self, Foo).initconfig_mpi_entries()
-
-       # The existing MPI configurations key on whether ``mpi`` is in the spec
-       # This spec has an MPI variant, and we need to enable MPI when it is on.
-       # This hypothetical package controls MPI with the ``FOO_MPI`` option to
-       # cmake.
-       if '+mpi' in self.spec:
-           entries.append(cmake_cache_option('FOO_MPI', True, "enable mpi"))
-       else:
-           entries.append(cmake_cache_option('FOO_MPI', False, "disable mpi"))
-
-   def initconfig_package_entries(self):
-       # Package specific options
-       entries = []
-
-       entries.append('#Entries for build options')
-
-       bar_on = '+bar' in self.spec
-       entries.append(cmake_cache_option('FOO_BAR', bar_on, 'toggle bar'))
-
-       entries.append('#Entries for dependencies')
-
-       if self.spec['blas'].name == 'baz':  # baz is our blas provider
-       entries.append(cmake_cache_string('FOO_BLAS', 'baz', 'Use baz'))
-       entries.append(cmake_cache_path('BAZ_PREFIX', self.spec['baz'].prefix))

 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 
 To add additional flags to the ``cmake`` call, simply override the
-``cmake_args`` function. The following example defines values for the flags

+       else:
+           args.append('-DDETECT_HDF5=OFF')
 
        return args
 
-Spack supports CMake defines from conditional variants too. Whenever the condition on
-the variant is not met, ``define_from_variant()`` will simply return an empty string,
-and CMake simply ignores the empty command line argument. For example the following
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   variant('example', default=True, when='@2.0:')
-
-   def cmake_args(self):
-      return [self.define_from_variant('EXAMPLE', 'example')]
-
-will generate ``'cmake' '-DEXAMPLE=ON' ...`` when `@2.0: +example` is met, but will
-result in ``'cmake' '' ...`` when the spec version is below ``2.0``.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-CMake arguments provided by Spack
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The following default arguments are controlled by Spack:
-
-
-``CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX``
-------------------------
-
-Is set to the the package's install directory.
-
-
-``CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH``
----------------------
-
-CMake finds dependencies through calls to ``find_package()``, ``find_program()``,
-``find_library()``, ``find_file()``, and ``find_path()``, which use a list of search
-paths from ``CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH``. Spack sets this variable to a list of prefixes of the
-spec's transitive dependencies.
-
-For troubleshooting cases where CMake fails to find a dependency, add the
-``--debug-find`` flag to ``cmake_args``.
-
-``CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE``
---------------------
-
-Every CMake-based package accepts a ``-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE`` flag to
-dictate which level of optimization to use. In order to ensure
-uniformity across packages, the ``CMakePackage`` base class adds
-a variant to control this:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   variant('build_type', default='RelWithDebInfo',
-           description='CMake build type',
-           values=('Debug', 'Release', 'RelWithDebInfo', 'MinSizeRel'))
-
-However, not every CMake package accepts all four of these options.
-Grep the ``CMakeLists.txt`` file to see if the default values are
-missing or replaced. For example, the
-`dealii <https://github.com/spack/spack/blob/develop/var/spack/repos/builtin/packages/dealii/package.py>`_
-package overrides the default variant with:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   variant('build_type', default='DebugRelease',
-           description='The build type to build',
-           values=('Debug', 'Release', 'DebugRelease'))
-
-For more information on ``CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE``, see:
-https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/variable/CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE.html
-
-
-``CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH`` and ``CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH=ON``
---------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-CMake uses different RPATHs during the build and after installation, so that executables
-can locate the libraries they're linked to during the build, and installed executables
-do not have RPATHs to build directories. In Spack, we have to make sure that RPATHs are
-set properly after installation.
-
-Spack sets ``CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH`` to a list of ``<prefix>/lib`` or ``<prefix>/lib64``
-directories of the spec's link-type dependencies. Apart from that, it sets
-``-DCMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH=ON``, which should add RPATHs for directories of
-linked libraries not in the directories covered by ``CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH``.
-
-Usually it's enough to set only ``-DCMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH=ON``, but the
-reason to provide both options is that packages may dynamically open shared libraries,
-which CMake cannot detect. In those cases, the RPATHs from ``CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH`` are
-used as search paths.
-
-.. note::
-
-   Some packages provide stub libraries, which contain an interface for linking without
-   an implementation. When using such libraries, it's best to override the option
-   ``-DCMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH=OFF`` in ``cmake_args``, so that stub libraries
-   are not used at runtime.

-You can find source for the package at
-`<https://github.com/spack/spack/blob/develop/lib/spack/spack/build_systems/cuda.py>`__.
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Provided variants and dependencies
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 
-^^^^^^^^
-Variants
-^^^^^^^^
-
-This package provides the following variants:
-
-* **cuda**
-
-  This variant is used to enable/disable building with ``CUDA``. The default
-  is disabled (or ``False``).
-
-* **cuda_arch**
-
-  This variant supports the optional specification of the architecture.
-  Valid values are maintained in the ``cuda_arch_values`` property and
-  are the numeric character equivalent of the compute capability version
-  (e.g., '10' for version 1.0). Each provided value affects associated
-  ``CUDA`` dependencies and compiler conflicts.
-
-  GPUs and their compute capability versions are listed at
-  https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus .
-
-^^^^^^^^^
-Conflicts
-^^^^^^^^^
-
-Conflicts are used to prevent builds with known bugs or issues. While
-base ``CUDA`` conflicts have been included with this package, you may
-want to add more for your software.
-
-For example, if your package requires ``cuda_arch`` to be specified when
-``cuda`` is enabled, you can add the following conflict to your package
-to terminate such build attempts with a suitable message:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-    conflicts('cuda_arch=none', when='+cuda',
-              msg='CUDA architecture is required')
-
-Similarly, if your software does not support all versions of the property,
-you could add ``conflicts`` to your package for those versions.  For example,
-suppose your software does not work with CUDA compute capability versions
-prior to SM 5.0 (``50``).  You can add the following code to display a
-custom message should a user attempt such a build:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-    unsupported_cuda_archs = [
-        '10', '11', '12', '13',
-        '20', '21',
-        '30', '32', '35', '37'
-    ]
-    for value in unsupported_cuda_archs:
-        conflicts('cuda_arch={0}'.format(value), when='+cuda',
-                  msg='CUDA architecture {0} is not supported'.format(value))
-
-^^^^^^^
-Methods
-^^^^^^^
-
-This package provides one custom helper method, which is used to build
-standard CUDA compiler flags.
-
-**cuda_flags**
-
-    This built-in static method returns a list of command line flags 
-    for the chosen ``cuda_arch`` value(s).  The flags are intended to
-    be passed to the CUDA compiler driver (i.e., ``nvcc``).
-
-    This method must be explicitly called when you are creating the
-    arguments for your build in order to use the values.
+``CudaPackage`` provides ``cuda`` variant (default to ``off``) to enable/disable
+``CUDA``, and ``cuda_arch`` variant to optionally specify the architecture.
+It also declares dependencies on the ``CUDA`` package ``depends_on('cuda@...')``
+based on the architecture as well as specifies conflicts for certain compiler versions.
 
 ^^^^^
 Usage
 ^^^^^
 
-This helper package can be added to your package by adding it as a base
-class of your package.  For example, you can add it to your
-:ref:`CMakePackage <cmakepackage>`-based package as follows:
+In order to use it, just add another base class to your package, for example:

-            ...
-            return args
-
-assuming only the ``WITH_CUDA`` and ``CUDA_FLAGS`` flags are required.
-You will need to customize options as needed for your build.
-
-This example also illustrates how to check for the ``cuda`` variant using
-``self.spec`` and how to retrieve the ``cuda_arch`` variant's value, which
-is a list, using ``self.spec.variants['cuda_arch'].value``.

-========================
-
-Spack can install and use the Intel oneAPI products. You may either
-use spack to install the oneAPI tools or use the `Intel
-installers`_. After installation, you may use the tools directly, or
-use Spack to build packages with the tools.
-
-The Spack Python class ``IntelOneapiPackage`` is a base class that is
-used by ``IntelOneapiCompilers``, ``IntelOneapiMkl``,
-``IntelOneapiTbb`` and other classes to implement the oneAPI
-packages. See the :ref:`package-list` for the full list of available
-oneAPI packages or use::
-
-  spack list -d oneAPI
-
-For more information on a specific package, do::
-
-  spack info <package-name>
-
-Intel no longer releases new versions of Parallel Studio, which can be
-used in Spack via the :ref:`intelpackage`. All of its components can
-now be found in oneAPI. 
-
-Examples
-========
-
-Building a Package With icx
----------------------------
-
-In this example, we build patchelf with ``icc`` and ``icx``. The
-compilers are installed with spack.
-
-Install the oneAPI compilers::
-
-  spack install intel-oneapi-compilers
-
-Add the compilers to your ``compilers.yaml`` so spack can use them::
-
-  spack compiler add `spack location -i intel-oneapi-compilers`/compiler/latest/linux/bin/intel64
-  spack compiler add `spack location -i intel-oneapi-compilers`/compiler/latest/linux/bin
-
-Verify that the compilers are available::
-
-  spack compiler list
-
-The ``intel-oneapi-compilers`` package includes 2 families of
-compilers:
-
-* ``intel``: ``icc``, ``icpc``, ``ifort``. Intel's *classic*
-  compilers.
-* ``oneapi``: ``icx``, ``icpx``, ``ifx``. Intel's new generation of
-  compilers based on LLVM.
-
-To build the ``patchelf`` Spack package with ``icc``, do::
-
-  spack install patchelf%intel
-
-To build with with ``icx``, do ::
-
-  spack install patchelf%oneapi
-
-Using oneAPI MPI to Satisfy a Virtual Dependence
-------------------------------------------------------
-
-The ``hdf5`` package works with any compatible MPI implementation. To
-build ``hdf5`` with Intel oneAPI MPI do::
-
-  spack install hdf5 +mpi ^intel-oneapi-mpi
-
-Using Externally Installed oneAPI Tools
-=======================================
-
-Spack can also use oneAPI tools that are manually installed with
-`Intel Installers`_.  The procedures for configuring Spack to use
-external compilers and libraries are different.
-
-Compilers
----------
-
-To use the compilers, add some information about the installation to
-``compilers.yaml``. For most users, it is sufficient to do::
-
-  spack compiler add /opt/intel/oneapi/compiler/latest/linux/bin/intel64
-  spack compiler add /opt/intel/oneapi/compiler/latest/linux/bin
-
-Adapt the paths above if you did not install the tools in the default
-location. After adding the compilers, using them is the same
-as if you had installed the ``intel-oneapi-compilers`` package.
-Another option is to manually add the configuration to
-``compilers.yaml`` as described in :ref:`Compiler configuration
-<compiler-config>`.
-
-Libraries
----------
-
-If you want Spack to use oneMKL that you have installed without Spack in
-the default location, then add the following to
-``~/.spack/packages.yaml``, adjusting the version as appropriate::
-
-  intel-oneapi-mkl:
-    externals:
-    - spec: intel-oneapi-mkl@2021.1.1
-      prefix: /opt/intel/oneapi/
-
-
-Using oneAPI Tools Installed by Spack
-=====================================
-
-Spack can be a convenient way to install and configure compilers and

-   This temporary stub is required such that the ``intel-parallel-studio`` package
-   can be installed for the ``intel`` compiler (which the package itself is going
-   to provide after the installation) rather than an arbitrary system compiler.
-   The paths given in ``cc``, ``cxx``, ``f77``, ``fc`` must exist, but will
-   never be used to build anything during the installation of ``intel-parallel-studio``.
+   You are right to ask: "Why on earth is that necessary?" [fn8]_.
+   The answer lies in Spack striving for strict compiler consistency.
+   Consider what happens without such a pre-declared compiler stub:
+   Say, you ask Spack to install a particular version
+   ``intel-parallel-studio@edition.V``.  Spack will apply an unrelated compiler
+   spec to concretize and install your request, resulting in
+   ``intel-parallel-studio@edition.V %X``. That compiler ``%X`` is not going to
+   be the version that this new package itself provides. Rather, it would
+   typically be ``%gcc@...`` in a default Spack installation or possibly indeed
+   ``%intel@...``, but at a version that precedes ``V``.
 
-   The reason for this stub is that ``intel-parallel-studio`` also provides the
-   ``mpi`` and ``mkl`` packages and when concretizing a spec, Spack ensures
-   strong consistency of the used compiler across all dependencies:  [fn8]_.
-   Installing a package ``foo +mkl %intel`` will make Spack look for a package
-   ``mkl %intel``, which can be provided by ``intel-parallel-studio+mkl %intel``,
-   but not by ``intel-parallel-studio+mkl %gcc``.
+   The problem comes to the fore as soon as you try to use any virtual ``mkl``
+   or ``mpi`` packages that you would expect to now be provided by
+   ``intel-parallel-studio@edition.V``.  Spack will indeed see those virtual
+   packages, but only as being tied to the compiler that the package
+   ``intel-parallel-studio@edition.V`` was concretized with *at installation*.
+   If you were to install a client package with the new compilers now available
+   to you, you would naturally run ``spack install foo +mkl %intel@V``, yet
+   Spack will either complain about ``mkl%intel@V`` being missing (because it
+   only knows about ``mkl%X``) or it will go and attempt to install *another
+   instance* of ``intel-parallel-studio@edition.V %intel@V`` so as to match the
+   compiler spec ``%intel@V`` that you gave for your client package ``foo``.
+   This will be unexpected and will quickly get annoying because each
+   reinstallation takes up time and extra disk space.
 
-   Failure to do so may result in additional installations of ``mkl``, ``intel-mpi`` or
-   even ``intel-parallel-studio`` as dependencies for other packages.
+   To escape this trap, put the compiler stub declaration shown here in place,
+   then use that pre-declared compiler spec to install the actual package, as
+   shown next.  This approach works because during installation only the
+   package's own self-sufficient installer will be used, not any compiler.

-LuaPackage is a helper for the common case of Lua packages that provide
-a rockspec file.  This is not meant to take a rock archive, but to build
-a source archive or repository that provides a rockspec, which should cover
-most lua packages. In the case a Lua package builds by Make rather than
-luarocks, prefer MakefilePackage.
-
-^^^^^^
-Phases
-^^^^^^
-
-The ``LuaPackage`` base class comes with the following phases:
-
-#. ``unpack`` - if using a rock, unpacks the rock and moves into the source directory
-#. ``preprocess`` - adjust sources or rockspec to fix build
-#. ``install`` - install the project
-
-By default, these phases run:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   # If the archive is a source rock
-   $ luarocks unpack <archive>.src.rock
-   $ # preprocess is a noop by default
-   $ luarocks make <name>.rockspec
-
-
-Any of these phases can be overridden in your package as necessary.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Important files
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Packages that use the Lua/LuaRocks build system can be identified by the
-presence of a ``*.rockspec`` file in their sourcetree, or can be fetched as
-a source rock archive (``.src.rock``). This file declares things like build
-instructions and dependencies, the ``.src.rock`` also contains all code.
-
-It is common for the rockspec file to list the lua version required in
-a dependency. The LuaPackage class adds appropriate dependencies on a Lua
-implementation, but it is a good idea to specify the version required with
-a ``depends_on`` statement.  The block normally will be a table definition like
-this:
-
-.. code-block:: lua
-
-   dependencies = {
-      "lua >= 5.1",
-   }
-
-The LuaPackage class supports source repositories and archives containing
-a rockspec and directly downloading source rock files.  It *does not* support
-downloading dependencies listed inside a rockspec, and thus does not support
-directly downloading a rockspec as an archive.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Build system dependencies
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-All base dependencies are added by the build system, but LuaRocks is run to
-avoid downloading extra Lua dependencies during build.  If the package needs
-Lua libraries outside the standard set, they should be added as dependencies.
-
-To specify a Lua version constraint but allow all lua implementations, prefer
-to use ``depends_on("lua-lang@5.1:5.1.99")`` to express any 5.1 compatible
-version. If the package requires LuaJit rather than Lua,
-a ``depends_on("luajit")`` should be used to ensure a LuaJit distribution is
-used instead of the Lua interpreter. Alternately, if only interpreted Lua will
-work ``depends_on("lua")`` will express that.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Passing arguments to luarocks make
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-If you need to pass any arguments to the ``luarocks make`` call, you can
-override the ``luarocks_args`` method like so:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-    def luarocks_args(self):
-        return ['flag1', 'flag2']

-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Build system dependencies
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Maven requires the ``mvn`` executable to build the project. It also

-Quite frequently, a package will change build systems from one version to the

-#. Subclass ``Package`` and implement ``install`` as needed
-#. Create separate ``*-cmake``, ``*-autotools``, etc. packages for each build system
-#. Rename the old package to ``*-legacy`` and create a new package
-#. Move the old package to a ``legacy`` repository and create a new package
-#. Drop older versions that only support the older build system
-
-Of these options, 1 is preferred, and will be demonstrated in this
-documentation. Options 3-5 have issues with concretization, so shouldn't be
-used. Options 4-5 also don't support more than two build systems. Option 6 only
-works if the old versions are no longer needed. Option 1 is preferred over 2
-because it makes it easier to drop the old build system entirely.
-
-The exact syntax of the package depends on which build systems you need to
-support. Below are a couple of common examples.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Makefile -> Autotools
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Let's say we have the following package:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   class Foo(MakefilePackage):
-       version("1.2.0", sha256="...")
-
-       def edit(self, spec, prefix):
-           filter_file("CC=", "CC=" + spack_cc, "Makefile")
-
-       def install(self, spec, prefix):
-           install_tree(".", prefix)
-
-
-The package subclasses from :ref:`makefilepackage`, which has three phases:
-
-#. ``edit`` (does nothing by default)
-#. ``build`` (runs ``make`` by default)
-#. ``install`` (runs ``make install`` by default)
-
-In this case, the ``install`` phase needed to be overridden because the
-Makefile did not have an install target. We also modify the Makefile to use
-Spack's compiler wrappers. The default ``build`` phase is not changed.
-
-Starting with version 1.3.0, we want to use Autotools to build instead.
-:ref:`autotoolspackage` has four phases:
-
-#. ``autoreconf`` (does not if a configure script already exists)
-#. ``configure`` (runs ``./configure --prefix=...`` by default)
-#. ``build`` (runs ``make`` by default)
-#. ``install`` (runs ``make install`` by default)
-
-If the only version we need to support is 1.3.0, the package would look as
-simple as:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   class Foo(AutotoolsPackage):
-       version("1.3.0", sha256="...")
-
-       def configure_args(self):
-           return ["--enable-shared"]
-
-
-In this case, we use the default methods for each phase and only override
-``configure_args`` to specify additional flags to pass to ``./configure``.
-
-If we wanted to write a single package that supports both versions 1.2.0 and
-1.3.0, it would look something like:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   class Foo(AutotoolsPackage):
-       version("1.3.0", sha256="...")
-       version("1.2.0", sha256="...", deprecated=True)
-
-       def configure_args(self):
-           return ["--enable-shared"]
-
-       # Remove the following once version 1.2.0 is dropped
-       @when("@:1.2")
-       def patch(self):
-           filter_file("CC=", "CC=" + spack_cc, "Makefile")
-
-       @when("@:1.2")
-       def autoreconf(self, spec, prefix):
-           pass
-
-       @when("@:1.2")
-       def configure(self, spec, prefix):
-           pass
-
-       @when("@:1.2")
-       def install(self, spec, prefix):
-           install_tree(".", prefix)
-
-
-There are a few interesting things to note here:
-
-* We added ``deprecated=True`` to version 1.2.0. This signifies that version
-  1.2.0 is deprecated and shouldn't be used. However, if a user still relies
-  on version 1.2.0, it's still there and builds just fine.
-* We moved the contents of the ``edit`` phase to the ``patch`` function. Since
-  ``AutotoolsPackage`` doesn't have an ``edit`` phase, the only way for this
-  step to be executed is to move it to the ``patch`` function, which always
-  gets run.
-* The ``autoreconf`` and ``configure`` phases become no-ops. Since the old
-  Makefile-based build system doesn't use these, we ignore these phases when
-  building ``foo@1.2.0``.
-* The ``@when`` decorator is used to override these phases only for older
-  versions. The default methods are used for ``foo@1.3:``.
-
-Once a new Spack release comes out, version 1.2.0 and everything below the
-comment can be safely deleted. The result is the same as if we had written a
-package for version 1.3.0 from scratch.
-

-Autotools -> CMake
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Let's say we have the following package:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   class Bar(AutotoolsPackage):
-       version("1.2.0", sha256="...")
-
-       def configure_args(self):
-           return ["--enable-shared"]

-#. ``install`` (runs ``make install`` by default)
-
-In this case, we use the default methods for each phase and only override
-``configure_args`` to specify additional flags to pass to ``./configure``.
-
-Starting with version 1.3.0, we want to use CMake to build instead.
-:ref:`cmakepackage` has three phases:
-
-#. ``cmake`` (runs ``cmake ...`` by default)
-#. ``build`` (runs ``make`` by default)
-#. ``install`` (runs ``make install`` by default)
-
-If the only version we need to support is 1.3.0, the package would look as
-simple as:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   class Bar(CMakePackage):
-       version("1.3.0", sha256="...")
-
-       def cmake_args(self):
-           return [self.define("BUILD_SHARED_LIBS", True)]
-

-       # Remove the following once version 1.2.0 is dropped
-       def configure_args(self):
-           return ["--enable-shared"]
-
-       @when("@:1.2")
-       def cmake(self, spec, prefix):
-           configure("--prefix=" + prefix, *self.configure_args())
-
-

-  on version 1.2.0, it's still there and builds just fine.
-* Since CMake and Autotools are so similar, we only need to override the
-  ``cmake`` phase, we can use the default ``build`` and ``install`` phases.
-* We override ``cmake`` to run ``./configure`` for older versions.
-  ``configure_args`` remains the same.
-* The ``@when`` decorator is used to override these phases only for older
-  versions. The default methods are used for ``bar@1.3:``.

-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Multiple build systems for the same version
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-During the transition from one build system to another, developers often
-support multiple build systems at the same time. Spack can only use a single
-build system for a single version. To decide which build system to use for a
-particular version, take the following things into account:
-
-1. If the developers explicitly state that one build system is preferred over
-   another, use that one.
-2. If one build system is considered "experimental" while another is considered
-   "stable", use the stable build system.
-3. Otherwise, use the newer build system.
-
-The developer preference for which build system to use can change over time as
-a newer build system becomes stable/recommended.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Dropping support for old build systems
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-When older versions of a package don't support a newer build system, it can be
-tempting to simply delete them from a package. This significantly reduces
-package complexity and makes the build recipe much easier to maintain. However,
-other packages or Spack users may rely on these older versions. The recommended
-approach is to first support both build systems (as demonstrated above),
-:ref:`deprecate <deprecate>` versions that rely on the old build system, and
-remove those versions and any phases that needed to be overridden in the next
-Spack release.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Three or more build systems
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-In rare cases, a package may change build systems multiple times. For example,
-a package may start with Makefiles, then switch to Autotools, then switch to
-CMake. The same logic used above can be extended to any number of build systems.
-For example:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   class Baz(CMakePackage):
-       version("1.4.0", sha256="...")  # CMake
-       version("1.3.0", sha256="...")  # Autotools
-       version("1.2.0", sha256="...")  # Makefile
-
-       def cmake_args(self):
-           return [self.define("BUILD_SHARED_LIBS", True)]
-
-       # Remove the following once version 1.3.0 is dropped
-       def configure_args(self):
-           return ["--enable-shared"]
-
-       @when("@1.3")
-       def cmake(self, spec, prefix):
-           configure("--prefix=" + prefix, *self.configure_args())
-
-       # Remove the following once version 1.2.0 is dropped
-       @when("@:1.2")
-       def patch(self):
-           filter_file("CC=", "CC=" + spack_cc, "Makefile")
-
-       @when("@:1.2")
-       def cmake(self, spec, prefix):
-           pass
-
-       @when("@:1.2")
-       def install(self, spec, prefix):
-           install_tree(".", prefix)

-^^^^^^
-Phases
-^^^^^^
-
-The ``RacketPackage`` base class provides an ``install`` phase that
-can be overridden, corresponding to the use of:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ raco pkg install
-
-^^^^^^^
-Caveats
-^^^^^^^
-
-In principle, ``raco`` supports a second, ``setup`` phase; however, we have not
-implemented this separately, as in normal circumstances, ``install`` also handles
-running ``setup`` automatically.
-
-Unlike Python, Racket currently on supports two installation scopes for packages, user
-or system, and keeps a registry of installed packages at each scope in its configuration files.
-This means we can't simply compose a "``RACKET_PATH``" environment variable listing all of the
-places packages are installed, and update this at will.
-
-Unfortunately this means that all currently installed packages which extend Racket via ``raco pkg install``
-are accessible whenever Racket is accessible.
-
-Additionally, because Spack does not implement uninstall hooks, uninstalling a Spack  ``rkt-`` package
-will have no effect on the ``raco`` installed packages visible to your Racket installation.
-Instead, you must manually run ``raco pkg remove`` to keep the two package managers in a mutually
-consistent state.

-The ``ROCmPackage`` is not a build system but a helper package. Like ``CudaPackage``,
-it provides standard variants, dependencies, and conflicts to facilitate building
-packages using GPUs though for AMD in this case.
-
-You can find the source for this package (and suggestions for setting up your
-``compilers.yaml`` and ``packages.yaml`` files) at
-`<https://github.com/spack/spack/blob/develop/lib/spack/spack/build_systems/rocm.py>`__.
-
-^^^^^^^^
-Variants
-^^^^^^^^
-
-This package provides the following variants:
-
-* **rocm**
-
-  This variant is used to enable/disable building with ``rocm``.  
-  The default is disabled (or ``False``).
-
-* **amdgpu_target**
-
-  This variant supports the optional specification of the AMD GPU architecture.
-  Valid values are the names of the GPUs (e.g., ``gfx701``), which are maintained
-  in the ``amdgpu_targets`` property.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Dependencies
-^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-This package defines basic ``rocm`` dependencies, including ``llvm`` and ``hip``.
-
-^^^^^^^^^
-Conflicts
-^^^^^^^^^
-
-Conflicts are used to prevent builds with known bugs or issues. This package
-already requires that the ``amdgpu_target`` always be specified for ``rocm``
-builds. It also defines a conflict that prevents builds with an ``amdgpu_target``
-when ``rocm`` is disabled.
-
-Refer to `Conflicts <https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/packaging_guide.html?highlight=conflicts#conflicts>`__
-for more information on package conflicts.
-
-^^^^^^^
-Methods
-^^^^^^^
-
-This package provides one custom helper method, which is used to build
-standard AMD hip compiler flags.
-
-**hip_flags**
-
-    This built-in static method returns the appropriately formatted
-    ``--amdgpu-target`` build option for ``hipcc``.
-
-    This method must be explicitly called when you are creating the
-    arguments for your build in order to use the values.
-
-^^^^^
-Usage
-^^^^^
-
-This helper package can be added to your package by adding it as a base
-class of your package.  For example, you can add it to your
-:ref:`CMakePackage <cmakepackage>`-based package as follows:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-   :emphasize-lines: 1,3-7,14-25
-
-    class MyRocmPackage(CMakePackage, ROCmPackage):
-        ...
-        # Ensure +rocm and amdgpu_targets are passed to dependencies
-        depends_on('mydeppackage', when='+rocm')
-        for val in ROCmPackage.amdgpu_targets:
-            depends_on('mydeppackage amdgpu_target={0}'.format(val),
-                       when='amdgpu_target={0}'.format(val))
-        ...
-
-        def cmake_args(self):
-            spec = self.spec
-            args = []
-            ...
-            if '+rocm' in spec:
-                # Set up the hip macros needed by the build
-                args.extend([
-                    '-DENABLE_HIP=ON',
-                    '-DHIP_ROOT_DIR={0}'.format(spec['hip'].prefix)])
-                rocm_archs = spec.variants['amdgpu_target'].value
-                if 'none' not in rocm_archs:
-                    args.append('-DHIP_HIPCC_FLAGS=--amdgpu-target={0}'
-                                .format(",".join(rocm_archs)))
-            else:
-                # Ensure build with hip is disabled
-                args.append('-DENABLE_HIP=OFF')
-            ...
-            return args
-        ...
-
-assuming only on the ``ENABLE_HIP``, ``HIP_ROOT_DIR``, and ``HIP_HIPCC_FLAGS``
-macros are required to be set and the only dependency needing rocm options
-is ``mydeppackage``. You will need to customize the flags as needed for your
-build.
-
-This example also illustrates how to check for the ``rocm`` variant using
-``self.spec`` and how to retrieve the ``amdgpu_target`` variant's value
-using ``self.spec.variants['amdgpu_target'].value``.
-
-All five packages using ``ROCmPackage`` as of January 2021 also use the
-:ref:`CudaPackage <cudapackage>`. So it is worth looking at those packages
-to get ideas for creating a package that can support both ``cuda`` and
-``rocm``.

-Bioconductor packages
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Bioconductor packages are set up in a similar way to CRAN packages, but there
-are some very important distinctions. Bioconductor packages can be found at:
-https://bioconductor.org/. Bioconductor packages are R packages and so follow
-the same packaging scheme as CRAN packages. What is different is that
-Bioconductor itself is versioned and released. This scheme, using the
-Bioconductor package installer, allows further specification of the minimum
-version of R as well as further restrictions on the dependencies between
-packages than what is possible with the native R packaging system. Spack can
-not replicate these extra features and thus Bioconductor packages in Spack need
-to be managed as a group during updates in order to maintain package
-consistency with Bioconductor itself.
-
-Another key difference is that, while previous versions of packages are
-available, they are not available from a site that can be programmatically set,
-thus a ``list_url`` attribute can not be used. However, each package is also
-available in a git repository, with branches corresponding to each Bioconductor
-release. Thus, it is always possible to retrieve the version of any package
-corresponding to a Bioconductor release simply by fetching the branch that
-corresponds to the Bioconductor release of the package repository. For this
-reason, spack Bioconductor R packages use the git repository, with the commit
-of the respective branch used in the ``version()`` attribute of the package.

-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-cran and bioc attributes
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Much like the ``pypi`` attribute for python packages, due to the fact that R
-packages are obtained from specific repositories, it is possible to set up shortcut
-attributes that can be used to set ``homepage``, ``url``, ``list_url``, and
-``git``. For example, the following ``cran`` attribute:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   cran = 'caret'
-
-is equivalent to:
-
-.. code-block:: python

 Like Perl, Python, and R, Ruby has its own build system for
 installing Ruby gems.
 
-^^^^^^
-Phases
-^^^^^^
-
-The ``RubyPackage`` base class provides the following phases that
-can be overridden:
-
-#. ``build`` - build everything needed to install
-#. ``install`` - install everything from build directory
-
-For packages that come with a ``*.gemspec`` file, these phases run:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ gem build *.gemspec
-   $ gem install *.gem
-
-
-For packages that come with a ``Rakefile`` file, these phases run:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ rake package
-   $ gem install *.gem
-
-
-For packages that come pre-packaged as a ``*.gem`` file, the build
-phase is skipped and the install phase runs:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ gem install *.gem
-
-
-These are all standard ``gem`` commands and can be found by running:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ gem help commands
-
-
-For packages that only distribute ``*.gem`` files, these files can be
-downloaded with the ``expand=False`` option in the ``version`` directive.
-The build phase will be automatically skipped.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Important files
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-When building from source, Ruby packages can be identified by the
-presence of any of the following files:
-
-* ``*.gemspec``
-* ``Rakefile``
-* ``setup.rb`` (not yet supported)
-
-However, not all Ruby packages are released as source code. Some are only
-released as ``*.gem`` files. These files can be extracted using:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ gem unpack *.gem
-
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^
-Description
-^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The ``*.gemspec`` file may contain something like:
-
-.. code-block:: ruby
-
-   summary = 'An implementation of the AsciiDoc text processor and publishing toolchain'
-   description = 'A fast, open source text processor and publishing toolchain for converting AsciiDoc content to HTML 5, DocBook 5, and other formats.'
-
-
-Either of these can be used for the description of the Spack package.
-
-^^^^^^^^
-Homepage
-^^^^^^^^
-
-The ``*.gemspec`` file may contain something like:
-
-.. code-block:: ruby
-
-   homepage = 'https://asciidoctor.org'
-
-
-This should be used as the official homepage of the Spack package.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Build system dependencies
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-All Ruby packages require Ruby at build and run-time. For this reason,
-the base class contains:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   extends('ruby')
-
-
-The ``*.gemspec`` file may contain something like:
-
-.. code-block:: ruby
-
-   required_ruby_version = '>= 2.3.0'
-
-
-This can be added to the Spack package using:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   depends_on('ruby@2.3.0:', type=('build', 'run'))
-
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Ruby dependencies
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-When you install a package with ``gem``, it reads the ``*.gemspec``
-file in order to determine the dependencies of the package.
-If the dependencies are not yet installed, ``gem`` downloads them
-and installs them for you. This may sound convenient, but Spack
-cannot rely on this behavior for two reasons:
-
-#. Spack needs to be able to install packages on air-gapped networks.
-
-   If there is no internet connection, ``gem`` can't download the
-   package dependencies. By explicitly listing every dependency in
-   the ``package.py``, Spack knows what to download ahead of time.
-
-#. Duplicate installations of the same dependency may occur.
-
-   Spack supports *activation* of Ruby extensions, which involves
-   symlinking the package installation prefix to the Ruby installation
-   prefix. If your package is missing a dependency, that dependency
-   will be installed to the installation directory of the same package.
-   If you try to activate the package + dependency, it may cause a
-   problem if that package has already been activated.
-
-For these reasons, you must always explicitly list all dependencies.
-Although the documentation may list the package's dependencies,
-often the developers assume people will use ``gem`` and won't have to
-worry about it. Always check the ``*.gemspec`` file to find the true
-dependencies.
-
-Check for the following clues in the ``*.gemspec`` file:
-
-* ``add_runtime_dependency``
-
-  These packages are required for installation.
-
-* ``add_dependency``
-
-  This is an alias for ``add_runtime_dependency``
-
-* ``add_development_dependency``
-
-  These packages are optional dependencies used for development.
-  They should not be added as dependencies of the package.

 Container Images

-than just:
+Spack can be an ideal tool to setup images for containers since all the
+features discussed in :ref:`environments` can greatly help to manage
+the installation of software during the image build process. Nonetheless,
+building a production image from scratch still requires a lot of
+boilerplate to:
 
-.. code-block:: docker
+- Get Spack working within the image, possibly running as root
+- Minimize the physical size of the software installed
+- Properly update the system software in the base image
 
-   COPY spack.yaml /environment
-   RUN spack -e /environment install
-
-Additional actions may be needed to minimize the size of the
-container, or to update the system software that is installed in the base
-image, or to set up a proper entrypoint to run the image. These tasks are

-Use Official Spack Images From Dockerhub

-
-To generate a recipe that uses an official Docker image from the
-Spack organization to build the software and the corresponding official OS image
-to install the built software, all the user has to do is specify:

-2. A Spack version under ``images:spack``
-
-Any combination of these two values that can be mapped to one of the images
-discussed in :ref:`container_spack_images` is allowed. For instance, the
-following ``spack.yaml``:

-In some cases users may want to pin the commit sha that is used for Spack, to ensure later
-reproducibility, or start from a fork of the official Spack repository to try a bugfix or
-a feature in the early stage of development. This is possible by being just a little more
-verbose when specifying information about Spack in the ``spack.yaml`` file:

-     spack:
-       # URL of the Spack repository to be used in the container image

-       ref: <sha/tag/branch>
-       # If true turn a branch name or a tag into the corresponding commit
-       # sha at the time of recipe generation
-       resolve_sha: <true/false>
-
-``url`` specifies the URL from which to clone Spack and defaults to https://github.com/spack/spack.
-The ``ref`` attribute can be either a commit sha, a branch name or a tag. The default value in
-this case is to use the ``develop`` branch, but it may change in the future to point to the latest stable
-release. Finally ``resolve_sha`` transform branch names or tags into the corresponding commit
-shas at the time of recipe generation, to allow for a greater reproducibility of the results
-at a later time.

-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Use Custom Images Provided by Users
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Consider, as an example, building a production grade image for a CUDA
-application. The best strategy would probably be to build on top of
-images provided by the vendor and regard CUDA as an external package.
-
-Spack doesn't currently provide an official image with CUDA configured
-this way, but users can build it on their own and then configure the
-environment to explicitly pull it. This requires users to:
-
-1. Specify the image used to build the software under ``images:build``
-2. Specify the image used to install the built software under ``images:final``
-
-A ``spack.yaml`` like the following:
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-   spack:
-     specs:
-     - gromacs@2019.4+cuda build_type=Release
-     - mpich
-     - fftw precision=float
-     packages:
-       cuda:
-         buildable: False
-         externals:

-where the base images for both stages are completely custom.
-
-This second mode of selection for base images is more flexible than just
-choosing an operating system and a Spack version, but is also more demanding.
-Users may need to generate by themselves their base images and it's also their
-responsibility to ensure that:
-
-1. Spack is available in the ``build`` stage and set up correctly to install the required software
-2. The artifacts produced in the ``build`` stage can be executed in the ``final`` stage

+image can be printed to standard output by issuing the following
+command from the directory where the ``spack.yaml`` resides:
 
-^^^
-MPI
-^^^
-Due to the dependency on Fortran for OpenMPI, which is the spack default
-implementation, consider adding ``gfortran`` to the ``apt-get install`` list.
+.. code-block:: console
 
-Recent versions of OpenMPI will require you to pass ``--allow-run-as-root``
-to your ``mpirun`` calls if started as root user inside Docker.
+   $ spack containerize
 
-For execution on HPC clusters, it can be helpful to import the docker
-image into Singularity in order to start a program with an *external*
-MPI. Otherwise, also add ``openssh-server`` to the ``apt-get install`` list.
+The example ``spack.yaml`` above would produce for instance the

-CUDA
-^^^^
-Starting from CUDA 9.0, Nvidia provides minimal CUDA images based on
-Ubuntu. Please see `their instructions <https://hub.docker.com/r/nvidia/cuda/>`_.
-Avoid double-installing CUDA by adding, e.g.

-On Mac OS and Windows, docker runs on a hypervisor that is not allocated much

-memory. To work around this issue, consider configuring your docker installation

-Writing Hooks
--------------
-
-A hook is a callback that makes it easy to design functions that run
-for different events. We do this by way of defining hook types, and then
-inserting them at different places in the spack code base. Whenever a hook
-type triggers by way of a function call, we find all the hooks of that type,
-and run them.
-
-Spack defines hooks by way of a module at ``lib/spack/spack/hooks`` where we can define
-types of hooks in the ``__init__.py``, and then python files in that folder
-can use hook functions. The files are automatically parsed, so if you write
-a new file for some integration (e.g., ``lib/spack/spack/hooks/myintegration.py``
-you can then write hook functions in that file that will be automatically detected,
-and run whenever your hook is called. This section will cover the basic kind
-of hooks, and how to write them.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Types of Hooks
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The following hooks are currently implemented to make it easy for you,
-the developer, to add hooks at different stages of a spack install or similar.
-If there is a hook that you would like and is missing, you can propose to add a new one.
-
-"""""""""""""""""""""
-``pre_install(spec)``
-"""""""""""""""""""""
-
-A ``pre_install`` hook is run within an install subprocess, directly before
-the install starts. It expects a single argument of a spec, and is run in
-a multiprocessing subprocess. Note that if you see ``pre_install`` functions associated with packages these are not hooks
-as we have defined them here, but rather callback functions associated with
-a package install.
-
-
-""""""""""""""""""""""
-``post_install(spec)``
-""""""""""""""""""""""
-
-A ``post_install`` hook is run within an install subprocess, directly after
-the install finishes, but before the build stage is removed. If you
-write one of these hooks, you should expect it to accept a spec as the only
-argument. This is run in a multiprocessing subprocess. This ``post_install`` is
-also seen in packages, but in this context not related to the hooks described
-here.
-
-
-""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-``on_install_start(spec)``
-""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-
-This hook is run at the beginning of ``lib/spack/spack/installer.py``,
-in the install function of a ``PackageInstaller``,
-and importantly is not part of a build process, but before it. This is when
-we have just newly grabbed the task, and are preparing to install. If you
-write a hook of this type, you should provide the spec to it.
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-    def on_install_start(spec):
-        """On start of an install, we want to...
-        """
-        print('on_install_start')
-
-
-""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-``on_install_success(spec)``
-""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-
-This hook is run on a successful install, and is also run inside the build
-process, akin to ``post_install``. The main difference is that this hook
-is run outside of the context of the stage directory, meaning after the
-build stage has been removed and the user is alerted that the install was
-successful. If you need to write a hook that is run on success of a particular
-phase, you should use ``on_phase_success``.
-
-""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-``on_install_failure(spec)``
-""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-
-This hook is run given an install failure that happens outside of the build
-subprocess, but somewhere in ``installer.py`` when something else goes wrong.
-If you need to write a hook that is relevant to a failure within a build
-process, you would want to instead use ``on_phase_failure``.
-
-
-"""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-``on_install_cancel(spec)``
-"""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-
-The same, but triggered if a spec install is cancelled for any reason.
-
-
-"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-``on_phase_success(pkg, phase_name, log_file)``
-"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-
-This hook is run within the install subprocess, and specifically when a phase
-successfully finishes. Since we are interested in the package, the name of
-the phase, and any output from it, we require:
-
- - **pkg**: the package variable, which also has the attached spec at ``pkg.spec``
- - **phase_name**: the name of the phase that was successful (e.g., configure)
- - **log_file**: the path to the file with output, in case you need to inspect or otherwise interact with it.
-
-"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-``on_phase_error(pkg, phase_name, log_file)``
-"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-
-In the case of an error during a phase, we might want to trigger some event
-with a hook, and this is the purpose of this particular hook. Akin to
-``on_phase_success`` we require the same variables - the package that failed,
-the name of the phase, and the log file where we might find errors.
-
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Adding a New Hook Type
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Adding a new hook type is very simple!  In ``lib/spack/spack/hooks/__init__.py``
-you can simply create a new ``HookRunner`` that is named to match your new hook.
-For example, let's say you want to add a new hook called ``post_log_write``
-to trigger after anything is written to a logger. You would add it as follows:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-    # pre/post install and run by the install subprocess
-    pre_install = HookRunner('pre_install')
-    post_install = HookRunner('post_install')
-
-    # hooks related to logging
-    post_log_write = HookRunner('post_log_write') # <- here is my new hook!
-
-
-You then need to decide what arguments my hook would expect. Since this is
-related to logging, let's say that you want a message and level. That means
-that when you add a python file to the ``lib/spack/spack/hooks``
-folder with one or more callbacks intended to be triggered by this hook. You might
-use my new hook as follows:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-    def post_log_write(message, level):
-        """Do something custom with the messsage and level every time we write
-        to the log
-        """
-        print('running post_log_write!')
-
-
-To use the hook, we would call it as follows somewhere in the logic to do logging.
-In this example, we use it outside of a logger that is already defined:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-    import spack.hooks
-
-    # We do something here to generate a logger and message
-    spack.hooks.post_log_write(message, logger.level)
-
-
-This is not to say that this would be the best way to implement an integration
-with the logger (you'd probably want to write a custom logger, or you could
-have the hook defined within the logger) but serves as an example of writing a hook.

-Release branches

-

-<point-releases>` (``0.17.1``, ``0.17.2``, ``0.17.3``, etc.). Here is a

-    | o  tag: v0.17.0
-    o |
-    | o
-    |/
-    o
-
-The ``develop`` branch has the latest contributions, and nearly all pull
-requests target ``develop``. The ``develop`` branch will report that its
-version is that of the next **major** release with a ``.dev0`` suffix.
-
-Each Spack release series also has a corresponding branch, e.g.
-``releases/v0.18`` has ``0.18.x`` versions of Spack, and
-``releases/v0.17`` has ``0.17.x`` versions. A major release is the first
-tagged version on a release branch. Minor releases are back-ported from
-develop onto release branches. This is typically done by cherry-picking
-bugfix commits off of ``develop``.
-
-To avoid version churn for users of a release series, minor releases
-**should not** make changes that would change the concretization of
-packages. They should generally only contain fixes to the Spack core.
-However, sometimes priorities are such that new functionality needs to
-be added to a minor release.
-
-Both major and minor releases are tagged. As a convenience, we also tag
-the latest release as ``releases/latest``, so that users can easily check
-it out to get the latest stable version. See :ref:`updating-latest-release`
-for more details.
-
-.. note::
-
-   Older spack releases were merged **back** into develop so that we could
-   do fancy things with tags, but since tarballs and many git checkouts do
-   not have tags, this proved overly complex and confusing.
-
-   We have since converted to using `PEP 440 <https://peps.python.org/pep-0440/>`_
-   compliant versions.  `See here <https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/25267>`_ for
-   details.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Scheduling work for releases
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-We schedule work for releases by creating `GitHub projects
-<https://github.com/spack/spack/projects>`_. At any time, there may be
-several open release projects. For example, below are two releases (from
-some past version of the page linked above):
-
-.. image:: images/projects.png
-
-This image shows one release in progress for ``0.15.1`` and another for
-``0.16.0``. Each of these releases has a project board containing issues
-and pull requests. GitHub shows a status bar with completed work in
-green, work in progress in purple, and work not started yet in gray, so
-it's fairly easy to see progress.
-
-Spack's project boards are not firm commitments so we move work between
-releases frequently. If we need to make a release and some tasks are not
-yet done, we will simply move them to the next minor or major release, rather
-than delaying the release to complete them.
-
-For more on using GitHub project boards, see `GitHub's documentation
-<https://docs.github.com/en/github/managing-your-work-on-github/about-project-boards>`_.

-Making major releases
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Assuming a project board has already been created and all required work
-completed, the steps to make the major release are:
-
-#. Create two new project boards:
-
-   * One for the next major release
-   * One for the next point release
-
-#. Move any optional tasks that are not done to one of the new project boards.
-
-   In general, small bugfixes should go to the next point release. Major
-   features, refactors, and changes that could affect concretization should
-   go in the next major release.
-
-#. Create a branch for the release, based on ``develop``:
-
-   .. code-block:: console
-
-      $ git checkout -b releases/v0.15 develop
-
-   For a version ``vX.Y.Z``, the branch's name should be
-   ``releases/vX.Y``. That is, you should create a ``releases/vX.Y``
-   branch if you are preparing the ``X.Y.0`` release.
-
-#. Remove the ``dev0`` development release segment from the version tuple in
-   ``lib/spack/spack/__init__.py``.
-
-   The version number itself should already be correct and should not be
-   modified.
-
-#. Update ``CHANGELOG.md`` with major highlights in bullet form.
-
-   Use proper markdown formatting, like `this example from 0.15.0
-   <https://github.com/spack/spack/commit/d4bf70d9882fcfe88507e9cb444331d7dd7ba71c>`_.
-
-#. Push the release branch to GitHub.
-
-#. Make sure CI passes on the release branch, including:
-
-   * Regular unit tests
-   * Build tests
-   * The E4S pipeline at `gitlab.spack.io <https://gitlab.spack.io>`_
-
-   If CI is not passing, submit pull requests to ``develop`` as normal
-   and keep rebasing the release branch on ``develop`` until CI passes.
-
-#. Make sure the entire documentation is up to date. If documentation
-   is outdated submit pull requests to ``develop`` as normal
-   and keep rebasing the release branch on ``develop``.
-
-#. Bump the major version in the ``develop`` branch.
-
-   Create a pull request targeting the ``develop`` branch, bumping the major
-   version in ``lib/spack/spack/__init__.py`` with a ``dev0`` release segment.
-   For instance when you have just released ``v0.15.0``, set the version
-   to ``(0, 16, 0, 'dev0')`` on ``develop``.

-.. _point-releases:
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Making point releases
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Assuming a project board has already been created and all required work
-completed, the steps to make the point release are:
-
-#. Create a new project board for the next point release.
-
-#. Move any optional tasks that are not done to the next project board.
-
-#. Check out the release branch (it should already exist).
-
-    For the ``X.Y.Z`` release, the release branch is called ``releases/vX.Y``.
-    For ``v0.15.1``, you would check out ``releases/v0.15``:
-
-   .. code-block:: console
-
-      $ git checkout releases/v0.15
-
-#. Cherry-pick each pull request in the ``Done`` column of the release
-   project board onto the release branch.
-
-   This is **usually** fairly simple since we squash the commits from the
-   vast majority of pull requests. That means there is only one commit
-   per pull request to cherry-pick. For example, `this pull request
-   <https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/15777>`_ has three commits, but
-   they were squashed into a single commit on merge. You can see the
-   commit that was created here:
-
-   .. image:: images/pr-commit.png
-
-   You can easily cherry pick it like this (assuming you already have the
-   release branch checked out):
-
-   .. code-block:: console
-
-      $ git cherry-pick 7e46da7
-
-   For pull requests that were rebased (or not squashed), you'll need to
-   cherry-pick each associated commit individually.
-
-   .. warning::
-
-      It is important to cherry-pick commits in the order they happened,
-      otherwise you can get conflicts while cherry-picking. When
-      cherry-picking onto a point release, look at the merge date,
-      **not** the number of the pull request or the date it was opened.
-
-      Sometimes you may **still** get merge conflicts even if you have
-      cherry-picked all the commits in order. This generally means there
-      is some other intervening pull request that the one you're trying
-      to pick depends on. In these cases, you'll need to make a judgment
-      call regarding those pull requests.  Consider the number of affected
-      files and or the resulting differences.
-
-      1. If the dependency changes are small, you might just cherry-pick it,
-         too. If you do this, add the task to the release board.
-
-      2. If the changes are large, then you may decide that this fix is not
-         worth including in a point release, in which case you should remove
-         the task from the release project.
-
-      3. You can always decide to manually back-port the fix to the release
-         branch if neither of the above options makes sense, but this can
-         require a lot of work. It's seldom the right choice.
-
-#. Bump the version in ``lib/spack/spack/__init__.py``.
-
-#. Update ``CHANGELOG.md`` with a list of the changes.
-
-   This is typically a summary of the commits you cherry-picked onto the
-   release branch. See `the changelog from 0.14.1
-   <https://github.com/spack/spack/commit/ff0abb9838121522321df2a054d18e54b566b44a>`_.
-
-#. Push the release branch to GitHub.
-
-#. Make sure CI passes on the release branch, including:
-
-   * Regular unit tests
-   * Build tests
-   * The E4S pipeline at `gitlab.spack.io <https://gitlab.spack.io>`_
-
-   If CI does not pass, you'll need to figure out why, and make changes
-   to the release branch until it does. You can make more commits, modify
-   or remove cherry-picked commits, or cherry-pick **more** from
-   ``develop`` to make this happen.

-
-.. _publishing-releases:
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Publishing a release on GitHub
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-#. Create the release in GitHub.
-
-   * Go to
-     `github.com/spack/spack/releases <https://github.com/spack/spack/releases>`_
-     and click ``Draft a new release``.
-
-   * Set ``Tag version`` to the name of the tag that will be created.
-
-     The name should start with ``v`` and contain *all three*
-     parts of the version (e.g. ``v0.15.0`` or ``v0.15.1``).
-
-   * Set ``Target`` to the ``releases/vX.Y`` branch (e.g., ``releases/v0.15``).
-
-   * Set ``Release title`` to ``vX.Y.Z`` to match the tag (e.g., ``v0.15.1``).
-
-   * Paste the latest release markdown from your ``CHANGELOG.md`` file as the text.
-
-   * Save the draft so you can keep coming back to it as you prepare the release.
-
-#. When you are ready to finalize the release, click ``Publish release``.
-
-#. Immediately after publishing, go back to
-   `github.com/spack/spack/releases
-   <https://github.com/spack/spack/releases>`_ and download the
-   auto-generated ``.tar.gz`` file for the release. It's the ``Source
-   code (tar.gz)`` link.
-
-#. Click ``Edit`` on the release you just made and attach the downloaded
-   release tarball as a binary. This does two things:
-
-   #. Makes sure that the hash of our releases does not change over time.
-
-      GitHub sometimes annoyingly changes the way they generate tarballs
-      that can result in the hashes changing if you rely on the
-      auto-generated tarball links.
-
-   #. Gets download counts on releases visible through the GitHub API.
-
-      GitHub tracks downloads of artifacts, but *not* the source
-      links. See the `releases
-      page <https://api.github.com/repos/spack/spack/releases>`_ and search
-      for ``download_count`` to see this.
-
-#. Go to `readthedocs.org <https://readthedocs.org/projects/spack>`_ and
-   activate the release tag.
-
-   This builds the documentation and makes the released version
-   selectable in the versions menu.
-
-
-.. _updating-latest-release:
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Updating `releases/latest`
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-If the new release is the **highest** Spack release yet, you should
-also tag it as ``releases/latest``. For example, suppose the highest
-release is currently ``0.15.3``:
-
-* If you are releasing ``0.15.4`` or ``0.16.0``, then you should tag
-  it with ``releases/latest``, as these are higher than ``0.15.3``.
-
-* If you are making a new release of an **older** major version of
-  Spack, e.g. ``0.14.4``, then you should not tag it as
-  ``releases/latest`` (as there are newer major versions).
-
-To tag ``releases/latest``, do this:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ git checkout releases/vX.Y     # vX.Y is the new release's branch
-   $ git tag --force releases/latest
-   $ git push --force --tags
-
-The ``--force`` argument to ``git tag`` makes ``git`` overwrite the existing
-``releases/latest`` tag with the new one.
-
-
-.. _announcing-releases:
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Announcing a release
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-We announce releases in all of the major Spack communication channels.
-Publishing the release takes care of GitHub. The remaining channels are
-Twitter, Slack, and the mailing list. Here are the steps:
-
-#. Announce the release on Twitter.
-
-   * Compose the tweet on the ``@spackpm`` account per the
-     ``spack-twitter`` slack channel.
-
-   * Be sure to include a link to the release's page on GitHub.
-
-     You can base the tweet on `this
-     example <https://twitter.com/spackpm/status/1231761858182307840>`_.
-
-#. Announce the release on Slack.
-
-   * Compose a message in the ``#general`` Slack channel
-     (`spackpm.slack.com <https://spackpm.slack.com>`_).
-
-   * Preface the message with ``@channel`` to notify even those
-     people not currently logged in.
-
-   * Be sure to include a link to the tweet above.
-
-   The tweet will be shown inline so that you do not have to retype
-   your release announcement.
-
-#. Announce the release on the Spack mailing list.
-
-   * Compose an email to the Spack mailing list.
-
-   * Be sure to include a link to the release's page on GitHub.
-
-   * It is also helpful to include some information directly in the
-     email.
-
-   You can base your announcement on this `example
-   email <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/spack/WT4CT9i_X4s>`_.
-
-Once you've completed the above steps, congratulations, you're done!
-You've finished making the release!

+"""""""""""""""""""
+
+Specs can be concretized separately or together, as already
+explained in :ref:`environments_concretization`. The behavior active
+under any environment is determined by the ``concretization`` property:
 
 .. code-block:: yaml
 
    spack:
        specs:
-         - hdf5~mpi
-         - hdf5+mpi
-         - zlib@1.2.8
-       concretizer:
-         unify: false
+         - ncview
+         - netcdf
+         - nco
+         - py-sphinx
+       concretization: together
 
-This mode of operation permits to deploy a full software stack where multiple configurations of the same package
-need to be installed alongside each other using the best possible selection of transitive dependencies. The downside
-is that redundancy of installations is disregarded completely, and thus environments might be more bloated than
-strictly needed. In the example above, for instance, if a version of ``zlib`` newer than ``1.2.8`` is known to Spack,
-then it will be used for both ``hdf5`` installations.
-
-If redundancy of the environment is a concern, Spack provides a way to install it *together where possible*,
-i.e. trying to maximize reuse of dependencies across different specs:
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-   spack:
-       specs:
-         - hdf5~mpi
-         - hdf5+mpi
-         - zlib@1.2.8
-       concretizer:
-         unify: when_possible
-
-Also in this case Spack allows having multiple configurations of the same package, but privileges the reuse of
-specs over other factors. Going back to our example, this means that both ``hdf5`` installations will use
-``zlib@1.2.8`` as a dependency even if newer versions of that library are available.
-Central installations done at HPC centers by system administrators or user support groups are a common case
-that fits either of these two modes.
-
-Environments can also be configured to concretize all the root specs *together*, in a self-consistent way, to
-ensure that each package in the environment comes with a single configuration:
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-   spack:
-       specs:
-         - hdf5+mpi
-         - zlib@1.2.8
-       concretizer:
-         unify: true
-
-This mode of operation is usually what is required by software developers that want to deploy their development
-environment and have a single view of it in the filesystem.
-
-.. note::
-
-   The ``concretizer:unify`` config option was introduced in Spack 0.18 to
-   replace the ``concretization`` property. For reference,
-   ``concretization: together`` is replaced by ``concretizer:unify:true``,
-   and ``concretization: separately`` is replaced by ``concretizer:unify:false``.
+which can currently take either one of the two allowed values ``together`` or ``separately``
+(the default).
 
 .. admonition:: Re-concretization of user specs
 
-   When concretizing specs *together* or *together where possible* the entire set of specs will be
+   When concretizing specs together the entire set of specs will be
    re-concretized after any addition of new user specs, to ensure that

-Dependencies and compilers in Spack can be both packages in an
-environment and constraints on other packages. References to SpecLists
-allow a shorthand to treat packages in a list as either a compiler or
-a dependency using the ``$%`` or ``$^`` syntax respectively.
+Spack Environments can define filesystem views of their software,
+which are maintained as packages and can be installed and uninstalled from
+the Environment. Filesystem views provide an access point for packages
+from the filesystem for users who want to access those packages
+directly. For more information on filesystem views, see the section
+:ref:`filesystem-views`.
 
-For example, the following environment has three root packages:
-``gcc@8.1.0``, ``mvapich2@2.3.1 %gcc@8.1.0``, and ``hdf5+mpi
-%gcc@8.1.0 ^mvapich2@2.3.1``.
+Spack Environment managed views are updated every time the environment
+is written out to the lock file ``spack.lock``, so the concrete
+environment and the view are always compatible.

-Filesystem Views

-Spack Environments can define filesystem views, which provide a direct access point
-for software similar to the directory hierarchy that might exist under ``/usr/local``.
-Filesystem views are updated every time the environment is written out to the lock
-file ``spack.lock``, so the concrete environment and the view are always compatible.
-The files of the view's installed packages are brought into the view by symbolic or
-hard links, referencing the original Spack installation, or by copy.

-Generating Depfiles from Environments
-------------------------------------------
-
-Spack can generate ``Makefile``\s to make it easier to build multiple
-packages in an environment in parallel. Generated ``Makefile``\s expose
-targets that can be included in existing ``Makefile``\s, to allow
-other targets to depend on the environment installation.
-
-A typical workflow is as follows:
-
-.. code:: console
-
-   spack env create -d .
-   spack -e . add perl
-   spack -e . concretize
-   spack -e . env depfile > Makefile
-   make -j64
-
-This generates a ``Makefile`` from a concretized environment in the
-current working directory, and ``make -j64`` installs the environment,
-exploiting parallelism across packages as much as possible. Spack
-respects the Make jobserver and forwards it to the build environment
-of packages, meaning that a single ``-j`` flag is enough to control the
-load, even when packages are built in parallel.
-
-By default the following phony convenience targets are available:
-
-- ``make all``: installs the environment (default target);
-- ``make fetch-all``: only fetch sources of all packages;
-- ``make clean``: cleans files used by make, but does not uninstall packages.
-
-.. tip::
-
-   GNU Make version 4.3 and above have great support for output synchronization
-   through the ``-O`` and ``--output-sync`` flags, which ensure that output is
-   printed orderly per package install. To get synchronized output with colors,
-   use ``make -j<N> SPACK_COLOR=always --output-sync=recurse``.
-
-The following advanced example shows how generated targets can be used in a
-``Makefile``:
-
-.. code:: Makefile
-
-   SPACK ?= spack
-
-   .PHONY: all clean env
-
-   all: env
-
-   spack.lock: spack.yaml
-   	$(SPACK) -e . concretize -f
-
-   env.mk: spack.lock
-   	$(SPACK) -e . env depfile -o $@ --make-target-prefix spack
-
-   env: spack/env
-   	$(info Environment installed!)
-
-   clean:
-   	rm -rf spack.lock env.mk spack/
-
-   ifeq (,$(filter clean,$(MAKECMDGOALS)))
-   include env.mk
-   endif
-
-When ``make`` is invoked, it first "remakes" the missing include ``env.mk``
-from its rule, which triggers concretization. When done, the generated target
-``spack/env`` is available. In the above example, the ``env`` target uses this generated
-target as a prerequisite, meaning that it can make use of the installed packages in
-its commands.
-
-As it is typically undesirable to remake ``env.mk`` as part of ``make clean``,
-the include is conditional.
-
-.. note::
-
-   When including generated ``Makefile``\s, it is important to use
-   the ``--make-target-prefix`` flag and use the non-phony target
-   ``<target-prefix>/env`` as prerequisite, instead of the phony target
-   ``<target-prefix>/all``.
