-title: "The Spack Package Manager: Bringing Order to HPC Software Chaos"
-abstract: >-
-  Large HPC centers spend considerable time supporting software for thousands of users, but the
-  complexity of HPC software is quickly outpacing the capabilities of existing software management
-  tools. Scientific applications require specific versions of compilers, MPI, and other dependency
-  libraries, so using a single, standard software stack is infeasible. However, managing many
-  configurations is difficult because the configuration space is combinatorial in size. We
-  introduce Spack, a tool used at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory to manage this complexity.
-  Spack provides a novel, re- cursive specification syntax to invoke parametric builds of packages
-  and dependencies. It allows any number of builds to coexist on the same system, and it ensures
-  that installed packages can find their dependencies, regardless of the environment. We show
-  through real-world use cases that Spack supports diverse and demanding applications, bringing
-  order to HPC software chaos.

 Spack is a multi-platform package manager that builds and installs
 multiple versions and configurations of software. It works on Linux,
-macOS, Windows, and many supercomputers. Spack is non-destructive: installing a
+macOS, and many supercomputers. Spack is non-destructive: installing a

+To install spack and your first package, make sure you have Python.
 Then:
 
-    $ git clone -c feature.manyFiles=true --depth=2 https://github.com/spack/spack.git
+    $ git clone https://github.com/spack/spack.git
     $ cd spack/bin
     $ ./spack install zlib
 
-> [!TIP]
-> `-c feature.manyFiles=true` improves git's performance on repositories with 1,000+ files.
->
-> `--depth=2` prunes the git history to reduce the size of the Spack installation.

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

-:: commands.  This allows the user to use packages without knowing all
-:: their installation details.
-::
-:: 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
-:: matching one.  If there are two versions of libelf, the user would
-:: need to be more specific, e.g.:
-::
-::     spack load libelf@0.8.13

+Analyze
+=======
+
+
+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
+                ├── environment_variables
+                │   └── spack-analyzer-environment-variables.json
+                ├── install_files
+                │   └── spack-analyzer-install-files.json
+                └── libabigail
+                    └── spack-analyzer-libabigail-libz.so.1.2.11.xml
+    
+
+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. 
+If you want to customize this top level folder, simply provide the ``--path``
+argument to ``spack analyze run``. The nested organization will be maintained
+within your custom root.
+
+-----------------
+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
+    abigail                  : 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.

-
-Spack can install a large number of Python packages. Their names are
-typically prefixed with ``py-``. Installing and using them is no
-different from any other package:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ spack install py-numpy
-   $ spack load py-numpy
-   $ python3
-   >>> import numpy
-
-The ``spack load`` command sets the ``PATH`` variable so that the right Python
-executable is used, and makes sure that ``numpy`` and its dependencies can be
-located in the ``PYTHONPATH``.
-
-Spack is different from other Python package managers in that it installs
-every package into its *own* prefix. This is in contrast to ``pip``, which
-installs all packages into the same prefix, be it in a virtual environment
-or not.
-
-For many users, **virtual environments** are more convenient than repeated
-``spack load`` commands, particularly when working with multiple Python
-packages. Fortunately Spack supports environments itself, which together
-with a view are no different from Python virtual environments.
-
-The recommended way of working with Python extensions such as ``py-numpy``
-is through :ref:`Environments <environments>`. The following example creates
-a Spack environment with ``numpy`` in the current working directory. It also
-puts a filesystem view in ``./view``, which is a more traditional combined
-prefix for all packages in the environment.
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ spack env create --with-view view --dir .
-   $ spack -e . add py-numpy
-   $ spack -e . concretize
-   $ spack -e . install
-
-Now you can activate the environment and start using the packages:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ spack env activate .
-   $ python3
-   >>> import numpy
-
-The environment view is also a virtual environment, which is useful if you are
-sharing the environment with others who are unfamiliar with Spack. They can
-either use the Python executable directly:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ ./view/bin/python3
-   >>> import numpy
-
-or use the activation script:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   $ source ./view/bin/activate
-   $ python3
-   >>> import numpy
-
-In general, there should not be much difference between ``spack env activate``
-and using the virtual environment. The main advantage of ``spack env activate``
-is that it knows about more packages than just Python packages, and it may set
-additional runtime variables that are not covered by the virtual environment
-activation script.

-
 Below are more details about the specifiers that you can add to specs.
 
-.. _version-specifier:
-
 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 Version specifier
 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 
-A version specifier ``pkg@<specifier>`` comes after a package name
-and starts with ``@``. It can be something abstract that matches
-multiple known versions, or a specific version. During concretization,
-Spack will pick the optimal version within the spec's constraints
-according to policies set for the particular Spack installation.
+A version specifier comes somewhere after a package name and starts
+with ``@``.  It can be a single version, e.g. ``@1.0``, ``@3``, or
+``@1.2a7``.  Or, it can be a range of versions, such as ``@1.0:1.5``
+(all versions between ``1.0`` and ``1.5``, inclusive).  Version ranges
+can be open, e.g. ``:3`` means any version up to and including ``3``.
+This would include ``3.4`` and ``3.4.2``.  ``4.2:`` means any version
+above and including ``4.2``.  Finally, a version specifier can be a
+set of arbitrary versions, such as ``@1.0,1.5,1.7`` (``1.0``, ``1.5``,
+or ``1.7``).  When you supply such a specifier to ``spack install``,
+it constrains the set of versions that Spack will install.
 
-The version specifier can be *a specific version*, such as ``@=1.0.0`` or
-``@=1.2a7``. Or, it can be *a range of versions*, such as ``@1.0:1.5``.
-Version ranges are inclusive, so this example includes both ``1.0``
-and any ``1.5.x`` version. Version ranges can be unbounded, e.g. ``@:3``
-means any version up to and including ``3``. This would include ``3.4``
-and ``3.4.2``.  Similarly, ``@4.2:`` means any version above and including
-``4.2``.  As a short-hand, ``@3`` is equivalent to the range ``@3:3`` and
-includes any version with major version ``3``.
-
-Versions are ordered lexicograpically by its components. For more details
-on the order, see :ref:`the packaging guide <version-comparison>`.
-
-Notice that you can distinguish between the specific version ``@=3.2`` and
-the range ``@3.2``. This is useful for packages that follow a versioning
-scheme that omits the zero patch version number: ``3.2``, ``3.2.1``,
-``3.2.2``, etc. In general it is preferable to use the range syntax
-``@3.2``, since ranges also match versions with one-off suffixes, such as
-``3.2-custom``.
-
-A version specifier can also be a list of ranges and specific versions,
-separated by commas.  For example, ``@1.0:1.5,=1.7.1`` matches any version
-in the range ``1.0:1.5`` and the specific version ``1.7.1``.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Git versions
-^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-For packages with a ``git`` attribute, ``git`` references
-may be specified instead of a numerical version i.e. branches, tags
-and commits. Spack will stage and build based off the ``git``
-reference provided.  Acceptable syntaxes for this are:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
-    # commit hashes
-   foo@abcdef1234abcdef1234abcdef1234abcdef1234    # 40 character hashes are automatically treated as git commits
-   foo@git.abcdef1234abcdef1234abcdef1234abcdef1234
-
-    # branches and tags
-   foo@git.develop # use the develop branch
-   foo@git.0.19 # use the 0.19 tag
-
-Spack always needs to associate a Spack version with the git reference,
-which is used for version comparison. This Spack version is heuristically
-taken from the closest valid git tag among ancestors of the git ref.
-
-Once a Spack version is associated with a git ref, it always printed with
-the git ref.  For example, if the commit ``@git.abcdefg`` is tagged
-``0.19``, then the spec will be shown as ``@git.abcdefg=0.19``.
-
-If the git ref is not exactly a tag, then the distance to the nearest tag
-is also part of the resolved version. ``@git.abcdefg=0.19.git.8`` means
-that the commit is 8 commits away from the ``0.19`` tag.
-
-In cases where Spack cannot resolve a sensible version from a git ref,
-users can specify the Spack version to use for the git ref. This is done
-by appending ``=`` and the Spack version to the git ref. For example:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
-   foo@git.my_ref=3.2 # use the my_ref tag or branch, but treat it as version 3.2 for version comparisons
-   foo@git.abcdef1234abcdef1234abcdef1234abcdef1234=develop # use the given commit, but treat it as develop for version comparisons
+If the version spec is not provided, then Spack will choose one
+according to policies set for the particular spack installation.  If
+the spec is ambiguous, i.e. it could match multiple versions, Spack
+will choose a version within the spec's constraints according to
+policies set for the particular Spack installation.
 
 Details about how versions are compared and how Spack determines if
 one version is less than another are discussed in the developer guide.

+Extensions & Python support
+---------------------------
+
+Spack's installation model assumes that each package will live in its
+own install prefix.  However, certain packages are typically installed
+*within* the directory hierarchy of other packages.  For example,
+`Python <https://www.python.org>`_ packages are typically installed in the
+``$prefix/lib/python-2.7/site-packages`` directory.
+
+Spack has support for this type of installation as well.  In Spack,
+a package that can live inside the prefix of another package is called
+an *extension*.  Suppose you have Python installed like so:

+
+The extensions are a subset of what's returned by ``spack list``, and

+   >>>
+
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Using Extensions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+There are four ways to get ``numpy`` working in Python.  The first is
+to use :ref:`shell-support`.  You can simply ``load`` the extension,
+and it will be added to the ``PYTHONPATH`` in your current shell:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   $ spack load python
+   $ spack load py-numpy
+
+Now ``import numpy`` will succeed for as long as you keep your current
+session open.
+
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Loading Extensions via Modules
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Instead of using Spack's environment modification capabilities through
+the ``spack load`` command, you can load numpy through your
+environment modules (using ``environment-modules`` or ``lmod``). This
+will also add the extension to the ``PYTHONPATH`` in your current
+shell.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   $ module load <name of numpy module>
+
+If you do not know the name of the specific numpy module you wish to
+load, you can use the ``spack module tcl|lmod loads`` command to get
+the name of the module from the Spack spec.
+
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Activating Extensions in a View
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Another way to use extensions is to create a view, which merges the
+python installation along with the extensions into a single prefix.
+See :ref:`filesystem-views` for a more in-depth description of views and
+:ref:`cmd-spack-view` for usage of the ``spack view`` command.
+
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Activating Extensions Globally
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+As an alternative to creating a merged prefix with Python and its extensions,
+and prior to support for views, Spack has provided a means to install the
+extension into the Spack installation prefix for the extendee. This has
+typically been useful since extendable packages typically search their own
+installation path for addons by default.
+
+Global activations are performed with the ``spack activate`` command:
+
+.. _cmd-spack-activate:
+
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+``spack activate``
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   $ spack activate py-numpy
+   ==> Activated extension py-setuptools@11.3.1%gcc@4.4.7 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64-3c74eb69 for python@2.7.8%gcc@4.4.7.
+   ==> Activated extension py-nose@1.3.4%gcc@4.4.7 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64-5f70f816 for python@2.7.8%gcc@4.4.7.
+   ==> Activated extension py-numpy@1.9.1%gcc@4.4.7 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64-66733244 for python@2.7.8%gcc@4.4.7.
+
+Several things have happened here.  The user requested that
+``py-numpy`` be activated in the ``python`` installation it was built
+with.  Spack knows that ``py-numpy`` depends on ``py-nose`` and
+``py-setuptools``, so it activated those packages first.  Finally,
+once all dependencies were activated in the ``python`` installation,
+``py-numpy`` was activated as well.
+
+If we run ``spack extensions`` again, we now see the three new
+packages listed as activated:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   $ spack extensions python
+   ==> python@2.7.8%gcc@4.4.7  arch=linux-debian7-x86_64-703c7a96

+
+Now, when a user runs python, ``numpy`` will be available for import
+*without* the user having to explicitly load it.  ``python@2.7.8`` now
+acts like a system Python installation with ``numpy`` installed inside
+of it.
+
+Spack accomplishes this by symbolically linking the *entire* prefix of
+the ``py-numpy`` package into the prefix of the ``python`` package.  To the
+python interpreter, it looks like ``numpy`` is installed in the
+``site-packages`` directory.
+
+The only limitation of global activation is that you can only have a *single*
+version of an extension activated at a time.  This is because multiple
+versions of the same extension would conflict if symbolically linked
+into the same prefix.  Users who want a different version of a package
+can still get it by using environment modules or views, but they will have to
+explicitly load their preferred version.
+
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+``spack activate --force``
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If, for some reason, you want to activate a package *without* its
+dependencies, you can use ``spack activate --force``:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   $ spack activate --force py-numpy
+   ==> Activated extension py-numpy@1.9.1%gcc@4.4.7 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64-66733244 for python@2.7.8%gcc@4.4.7.
+
+.. _cmd-spack-deactivate:
+
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+``spack deactivate``
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+We've seen how activating an extension can be used to set up a default
+version of a Python module.  Obviously, you may want to change that at
+some point.  ``spack deactivate`` is the command for this.  There are
+several variants:
+
+* ``spack deactivate <extension>`` will deactivate a single
+  extension.  If another activated extension depends on this one,
+  Spack will warn you and exit with an error.
+* ``spack deactivate --force <extension>`` deactivates an extension
+  regardless of packages that depend on it.
+* ``spack deactivate --all <extension>`` deactivates an extension and
+  all of its dependencies.  Use ``--force`` to disregard dependents.
+* ``spack deactivate --all <extendee>`` deactivates *all* activated
+  extensions of a package.  For example, to deactivate *all* python
+  extensions, use:
+
+  .. code-block:: console
+
+     $ spack deactivate --all python

-    caches refer to mirrors that provide prebuilt packages.

-Creating a build cache
-----------------------
+A compressed tarball of an installed package is created. Tarballs are created
+for all of its link and run dependency packages as well. Compressed tarballs are
+signed with gpg and signature and tarball and put in a ``.spack`` file. Optionally,
+the rpaths (and ids and deps on macOS) can be changed to paths relative to
+the Spack install tree before the tarball is created.
 
 Build caches are created via:
 
 .. code-block:: console
 
-    $ spack buildcache push <path/url/mirror name> <spec>
+    $ spack buildcache create <spec>
 
-This command takes the locally installed spec and its dependencies, and
-creates tarballs of their install prefixes. It also generates metadata files,
-signed with GPG. These tarballs and metadata files are then pushed to the
-provided binary cache, which can be a local directory or a remote URL.
 
-Here is an example where a build cache is created in a local directory named
-"spack-cache", to which we push the "ninja" spec:
+If you wanted to create a build cache in a local directory, you would provide
+the ``-d`` argument to target that directory, again also specifying the spec.
+Here is an example creating a local directory, "spack-cache" and creating
+build cache files for the "ninja" spec:
 
 .. code-block:: console
 
-    $ spack buildcache push ./spack-cache ninja
-    ==> Pushing binary packages to file:///home/spackuser/spack/spack-cache/build_cache
+    $ mkdir -p ./spack-cache
+    $ spack buildcache create -d ./spack-cache ninja
+    ==> Buildcache files will be output to file:///home/spackuser/spack/spack-cache/build_cache
+    gpgconf: socketdir is '/run/user/1000/gnupg'
+    gpg: using "E6DF6A8BD43208E4D6F392F23777740B7DBD643D" as default secret key for signing
 
-Note that ``ninja`` must be installed locally for this to work.

-Build cache signing
--------------------
-
-By default, Spack will add a cryptographic signature to each package pushed to
-a build cache, and verifies the signature when installing from a build cache.
-
-Keys for signing can be managed with the :ref:`spack gpg <cmd-spack-gpg>` command,
-as well as ``spack buildcache keys`` as mentioned above.
-
-You can disable signing when pushing with ``spack buildcache push --unsigned``,
-and disable verification when installing from any build cache with
-``spack install --no-check-signature``.
-
-Alternatively, signing and verification can be enabled or disabled on a per build cache
-basis:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack mirror add --signed <name> <url>  # enable signing and verification
-    $ spack mirror add --unsigned <name> <url>  # disable signing and verification
-
-    $ spack mirror set --signed <name>  # enable signing and verification for an existing mirror
-    $ spack mirror set --unsigned <name>  # disable signing and verification for an existing mirror
-
-Or you can directly edit the ``mirrors.yaml`` configuration file:
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-    mirrors:
-      <name>:
-        url: <url>
-        signed: false # disable signing and verification
-
-See also :ref:`mirrors`.
 
 ----------
 Relocation
 ----------
 
-When using buildcaches across different machines, it is likely that the install
-root will be different from the one used to build the binaries.
-
-To address this issue, Spack automatically relocates all paths encoded in binaries
-and scripts to their new location upon install.
-
-Note that there are some cases where this is not possible: if binaries are built in
-a relatively short path, and then installed to a longer path, there may not be enough
-space in the binary to encode the new path. In this case, Spack will fail to install
-the package from the build cache, and a source build is required.
-
-To reduce the likelihood of this happening, it is highly recommended to add padding to
-the install root during the build, as specified in the :ref:`config <config-yaml>`
-section of the configuration:
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-   config:
-     install_tree:
-       root: /opt/spack
-       padded_length: 128
-
-
-.. _binary_caches_oci:
-
----------------------------------
-Automatic push to a build cache
----------------------------------
-
-Sometimes it is convenient to push packages to a build cache as soon as they are installed. Spack can do this by setting autopush flag when adding a mirror:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack mirror add --autopush <name> <url or path>
-
-Or the autopush flag can be set for an existing mirror:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack mirror set --autopush <name>  # enable automatic push for an existing mirror
-    $ spack mirror set --no-autopush <name>  # disable automatic push for an existing mirror
-
-Then after installing a package it is automatically pushed to all mirrors with ``autopush: true``. The command
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack install <package>
-
-will have the same effect as
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack install <package>
-    $ spack buildcache push <cache> <package>  # for all caches with autopush: true
-
-.. note::
-
-    Packages are automatically pushed to a build cache only if they are built from source.
-
------------------------------------------
-OCI / Docker V2 registries as build cache
------------------------------------------
-
-Spack can also use OCI or Docker V2 registries such as Dockerhub, Quay.io,
-Github Packages, GitLab Container Registry, JFrog Artifactory, and others
-as build caches. This is a convenient way to share binaries using public
-infrastructure, or to cache Spack built binaries in Github Actions and
-GitLab CI.
-
-To get started, configure an OCI mirror using ``oci://`` as the scheme,
-and optionally specify variables that hold the username and password (or
-personal access token) for the registry:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack mirror add --oci-username-variable REGISTRY_USER \
-                       --oci-password-variable REGISTRY_TOKEN \
-                       my_registry oci://example.com/my_image
-
-Spack follows the naming conventions of Docker, with Dockerhub as the default
-registry. To use Dockerhub, you can omit the registry domain:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack mirror add ... my_registry oci://username/my_image
-
-From here, you can use the mirror as any other build cache:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ export REGISTRY_USER=...
-    $ export REGISTRY_TOKEN=...
-    $ spack buildcache push my_registry <specs...>  # push to the registry
-    $ spack install <specs...>  # or install from the registry
-
-A unique feature of buildcaches on top of OCI registries is that it's incredibly
-easy to generate get a runnable container image with the binaries installed. This
-is a great way to make applications available to users without requiring them to
-install Spack -- all you need is Docker, Podman or any other OCI-compatible container
-runtime.
-
-To produce container images, all you need to do is add the ``--base-image`` flag
-when pushing to the build cache:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ spack buildcache push --base-image ubuntu:20.04 my_registry ninja
-    Pushed to example.com/my_image:ninja-1.11.1-yxferyhmrjkosgta5ei6b4lqf6bxbscz.spack
-
-    $ docker run -it example.com/my_image:ninja-1.11.1-yxferyhmrjkosgta5ei6b4lqf6bxbscz.spack
-    root@e4c2b6f6b3f4:/# ninja --version
-    1.11.1
-
-If ``--base-image`` is not specified, distroless images are produced. In practice,
-you won't be able to run these as containers, since they don't come with libc and
-other system dependencies. However, they are still compatible with tools like
-``skopeo``, ``podman``, and ``docker`` for pulling and pushing.
-
-.. note::
-    The docker ``overlayfs2`` storage driver is limited to 128 layers, above which a
-    ``max depth exceeded`` error may be produced when pulling the image. There
-    are `alternative drivers <https://docs.docker.com/storage/storagedriver/>`_.

-Spack build cache for GitHub Actions
-------------------------------------
-
-To significantly speed up Spack in GitHub Actions, binaries can be cached in
-GitHub Packages. This service is an OCI registry that can be linked to a GitHub
-repository.
-
-Spack offers a public build cache for GitHub Actions with a set of common packages,

+need to be adjusted for better re-locatability.

-Bootstrapping
-=============
-
-In the :ref:`Getting started <getting_started>` Section we already mentioned that
-Spack can bootstrap some of its dependencies, including ``clingo``. In fact, there
-is an entire command dedicated to the management of every aspect of bootstrapping:
-
-.. command-output:: spack bootstrap --help
-
-Spack is configured to bootstrap its dependencies lazily by default; i.e. the first time they are needed and
-can't be found. You can readily check if any prerequisite for using Spack is missing by running:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack bootstrap status
-   Spack v0.19.0 - python@3.8
-
-   [FAIL] Core Functionalities
-     [B] MISSING "clingo": required to concretize specs
-
-   [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.
-
-   % echo $?
-   1
-
-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. The return code of this command summarizes the results, if any
-dependencies are missing the return code is ``1``, otherwise ``0``. Running a command that
-concretizes a spec, like:

-   % 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 -b find
-   ==> 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:

-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack clean -b

-
-   % spack -b find

-
---------------------------------------------
-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 disabling
-them specifically:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack bootstrap disable github-actions
-   ==> "github-actions" is now disabled 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 enable 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.
-   Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
-   %
-
-----------------------------------------
-Creating a mirror for air-gapped systems
-----------------------------------------
-
-Spack's default configuration for bootstrapping relies on the user having
-access to the internet, either to fetch pre-compiled binaries or source tarballs.
-Sometimes though Spack is deployed on air-gapped systems where such access is denied.
-
-To help with similar situations Spack has a command that recreates, in a local folder
-of choice, a mirror containing the source tarballs and/or binary packages needed for
-bootstrapping.
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack bootstrap mirror --binary-packages /opt/bootstrap
-   ==> Adding "clingo-bootstrap@spack+python %apple-clang target=x86_64" and dependencies to the mirror at /opt/bootstrap/local-mirror
-   ==> Adding "gnupg@2.3: %apple-clang target=x86_64" and dependencies to the mirror at /opt/bootstrap/local-mirror
-   ==> Adding "patchelf@0.13.1:0.13.99 %apple-clang target=x86_64" and dependencies to the mirror at /opt/bootstrap/local-mirror
-   ==> Adding binary packages from "https://github.com/alalazo/spack-bootstrap-mirrors/releases/download/v0.1-rc.2/bootstrap-buildcache.tar.gz" to the mirror at /opt/bootstrap/local-mirror
-
-   To register the mirror on the platform where it's supposed to be used run the following command(s):
-     % spack bootstrap add --trust local-sources /opt/bootstrap/metadata/sources
-     % spack bootstrap add --trust local-binaries /opt/bootstrap/metadata/binaries
-
-
-This command needs to be run on a machine with internet access and the resulting folder
-has to be moved over to the air-gapped system. Once the local sources are added using the
-commands suggested at the prompt, they can be used to bootstrap Spack.

+``packages.yaml`` file.  Using it, you can make Spack prefer particular
+implementations of virtual dependencies (e.g., MPI or BLAS/LAPACK),
+or you can make it prefer to build with particular compilers.  You can
+also tell Spack to use *external* software installations already
+present on your system.
 
-The ``concretizer.yaml`` configuration file allows to customize aspects of the
-algorithm used to select the dependencies you install. The default configuration
-is the following:
-
-.. literalinclude:: _spack_root/etc/spack/defaults/concretizer.yaml
-   :language: yaml
-
---------------------------------
-Reuse already installed packages
---------------------------------
-
-The ``reuse`` attribute controls how aggressively Spack reuses binary packages during concretization. The
-attribute can either be a single value, or an object for more complex configurations.
-
-In the former case ("single value") it allows Spack to:
-
-1. Reuse installed packages and buildcaches for all the specs to be concretized, when ``true``
-2. Reuse installed packages and buildcaches only for the dependencies of the root specs, when ``dependencies``
-3. Disregard reusing installed packages and buildcaches, when ``false``
-
-In case a finer control over which specs are reused is needed, then the value of this attribute can be
-an object, with the following keys:
-
-1. ``roots``: if ``true`` root specs are reused, if ``false`` only dependencies of root specs are reused
-2. ``from``: list of sources from which reused specs are taken
-
-Each source in ``from`` is itself an object:
-
-.. list-table:: Attributes for a source or reusable specs
-   :header-rows: 1
-
-   * - Attribute name
-     - Description
-   * - type (mandatory, string)
-     - Can be ``local``, ``buildcache``, or ``external``
-   * - include (optional, list of specs)
-     - If present, reusable specs must match at least one of the constraint in the list
-   * - exclude (optional, list of specs)
-     - If present, reusable specs must not match any of the constraint in the list.
-
-For instance, the following configuration:
+At a high level, the ``packages.yaml`` file is structured like this:
 
 .. code-block:: yaml
 
-   concretizer:
-     reuse:
-       roots: true
-       from:
-       - type: local
-         include:
-         - "%gcc"
-         - "%clang"
+   packages:
+     package1:
+       # settings for package1
+     package2:
+       # settings for package2
+     # ...
+     all:
+       # settings that apply to all packages.
 
-tells the concretizer to reuse all specs compiled with either ``gcc`` or ``clang``, that are installed
-in the local store. Any spec from remote buildcaches is disregarded.
+So you can either set build preferences specifically for *one* package,
+or you can specify that certain settings should apply to *all* packages.
+The types of settings you can customize are described in detail below.
 
-To reduce the boilerplate in configuration files, default values for the ``include`` and
-``exclude`` options can be pushed up one level:
+Spack's build defaults are in the default
+``etc/spack/defaults/packages.yaml`` file.  You can override them in
+``~/.spack/packages.yaml`` or ``etc/spack/packages.yaml``. For more
+details on how this works, see :ref:`configuration-scopes`.
+
+.. _sec-external-packages:
+
+-----------------
+External Packages
+-----------------
+
+Spack can be configured to use externally-installed
+packages rather than building its own packages. This may be desirable
+if machines ship with system packages, such as a customized MPI
+that should be used instead of Spack building its own MPI.
+
+External packages are configured through the ``packages.yaml`` file found
+in a Spack installation's ``etc/spack/`` or a user's ``~/.spack/``
+directory. Here's an example of an external configuration:
 
 .. code-block:: yaml
 
-   concretizer:
-     reuse:
-       roots: true
-       include:
-       - "%gcc"
-       from:
-       - type: local
-       - type: buildcache
-       - type: local
-         include:
-         - "foo %oneapi"
+   packages:
+     openmpi:
+       externals:
+       - spec: "openmpi@1.4.3%gcc@4.4.7 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64"
+         prefix: /opt/openmpi-1.4.3
+       - spec: "openmpi@1.4.3%gcc@4.4.7 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64+debug"
+         prefix: /opt/openmpi-1.4.3-debug
+       - spec: "openmpi@1.6.5%intel@10.1 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64"
+         prefix: /opt/openmpi-1.6.5-intel
 
-In the example above we reuse all specs compiled with ``gcc`` from the local store
-and remote buildcaches, and we also reuse ``foo %oneapi``. Note that the last source of
-specs override the default ``include`` attribute.
+This example lists three installations of OpenMPI, one built with GCC,
+one built with GCC and debug information, and another built with Intel.
+If Spack is asked to build a package that uses one of these MPIs as a
+dependency, it will use the pre-installed OpenMPI in
+the given directory. Note that the specified path is the top-level
+install prefix, not the ``bin`` subdirectory.
 
-For one-off concretizations, the are command line arguments for each of the simple "single value"
-configurations. This means a user can:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   % spack install --reuse <spec>
-
-to enable reuse for a single installation, or:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   spack install --fresh <spec>
-
-to do a fresh install if ``reuse`` is enabled by default.
-
-.. seealso::
-
-   FAQ: :ref:`Why does Spack pick particular versions and variants? <faq-concretizer-precedence>`
-
-------------------------------------------
-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 ``concretizer.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:
+``packages.yaml`` can also be used to specify modules to load instead
+of the installation prefixes.  The following example says that module
+``CMake/3.7.2`` provides cmake version 3.7.2.
 
 .. code-block:: yaml
 
-   concretizer:
-     targets:
-       granularity: microarchitectures
+   cmake:
+     externals:
+     - spec: cmake@3.7.2
+       modules:
+       - CMake/3.7.2
 
-Spack will consider all the microarchitectures known to ``archspec`` to label nodes for
-compatibility. If instead the option is set to:
+Each ``packages.yaml`` begins with a ``packages:`` attribute, followed
+by a list of package names.  To specify externals, add an ``externals:``
+attribute under the package name, which lists externals.
+Each external should specify a ``spec:`` string that should be as
+well-defined as reasonably possible.  If a
+package lacks a spec component, such as missing a compiler or
+package version, then Spack will guess the missing component based
+on its most-favored packages, and it may guess incorrectly.
+
+Each package version and compiler listed in an external should
+have entries in Spack's packages and compiler configuration, even
+though the package and compiler may not ever be built.
+
+The packages configuration can tell Spack to use an external location
+for certain package versions, but it does not restrict Spack to using
+external packages.  In the above example, since newer versions of OpenMPI
+are available, Spack will choose to start building and linking with the
+latest version rather than continue using the pre-installed OpenMPI versions.
+
+To prevent this, the ``packages.yaml`` configuration also allows packages
+to be flagged as non-buildable.  The previous example could be modified to
+be:
 
 .. code-block:: yaml
 
-   concretizer:
-     targets:
-       granularity: generic
+   packages:
+     openmpi:
+       externals:
+       - spec: "openmpi@1.4.3%gcc@4.4.7 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64"
+         prefix: /opt/openmpi-1.4.3
+       - spec: "openmpi@1.4.3%gcc@4.4.7 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64+debug"
+         prefix: /opt/openmpi-1.4.3-debug
+       - spec: "openmpi@1.6.5%intel@10.1 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64"
+         prefix: /opt/openmpi-1.6.5-intel
+       buildable: False
 
-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 addition of the ``buildable`` flag tells Spack that it should never build
+its own version of OpenMPI, and it will instead always rely on a pre-built
+OpenMPI.  Similar to ``paths``, ``buildable`` is specified as a property under
+a package name.
 
-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.
+If an external module is specified as not buildable, then Spack will load the
+external module into the build environment which can be used for linking.
 
----------------
-Duplicate nodes
----------------
+The ``buildable`` does not need to be paired with external packages.
+It could also be used alone to forbid packages that may be
+buggy or otherwise undesirable.
 
-The ``duplicates`` attribute controls whether the DAG can contain multiple configurations of
-the same package. This is mainly relevant for build dependencies, which may have their version
-pinned by some nodes, and thus be required at different versions by different nodes in the same
-DAG.
-
-The ``strategy`` option controls how the solver deals with duplicates. If the value is ``none``,
-then a single configuration per package is allowed in the DAG. This means, for instance, that only
-a single ``cmake`` or a single ``py-setuptools`` version is allowed. The result would be a slightly
-faster concretization, at the expense of making a few specs unsolvable.
-
-If the value is ``minimal`` Spack will allow packages tagged as ``build-tools`` to have duplicates.
-This allows, for instance, to concretize specs whose nodes require different, and incompatible, ranges
-of some build tool. For instance, in the figure below the latest `py-shapely` requires a newer `py-setuptools`,
-while `py-numpy` still needs an older version:
-
-.. figure::  images/shapely_duplicates.svg
-   :scale: 70 %
-   :align: center
-
-Up to Spack v0.20 ``duplicates:strategy:none`` was the default (and only) behavior. From Spack v0.21 the
-default behavior is ``duplicates:strategy:minimal``.
-
---------
-Splicing
---------
-
-The ``splice`` key covers config attributes for splicing specs in the solver.
-
-"Splicing" is a method for replacing a dependency with another spec
-that provides the same package or virtual. There are two types of
-splices, referring to different behaviors for shared dependencies
-between the root spec and the new spec replacing a dependency:
-"transitive" and "intransitive". A "transitive" splice is one that
-resolves all conflicts by taking the dependency from the new node. An
-"intransitive" splice is one that resolves all conflicts by taking the
-dependency from the original root. From a theory perspective, hybrid
-splices are possible but are not modeled by Spack.
-
-All spliced specs retain a ``build_spec`` attribute that points to the
-original Spec before any splice occurred. The ``build_spec`` for a
-non-spliced spec is itself.
-
-The figure below shows examples of transitive and intransitive splices:
-
-.. figure:: images/splices.png
-   :align: center
-
-The concretizer can be configured to explicitly splice particular
-replacements for a target spec. Splicing will allow the user to make
-use of generically built public binary caches, while swapping in
-highly optimized local builds for performance critical components
-and/or components that interact closely with the specific hardware
-details of the system. The most prominent candidate for splicing is
-MPI providers. MPI packages have relatively well-understood ABI
-characteristics, and most High Performance Computing facilities deploy
-highly optimized MPI packages tailored to their particular
-hardware. The following config block configures Spack to replace
-whatever MPI provider each spec was concretized to use with the
-particular package of ``mpich`` with the hash that begins ``abcdef``.
+Virtual packages in Spack can also be specified as not buildable, and
+external implementations can be provided. In the example above,
+OpenMPI is configured as not buildable, but Spack will often prefer
+other MPI implementations over the externally available OpenMPI. Spack
+can be configured with every MPI provider not buildable individually,
+but more conveniently:
 
 .. code-block:: yaml
 
-   concretizer:
-     splice:
-       explicit:
-       - target: mpi
-         replacement: mpich/abcdef
-         transitive: false
+   packages:
+     mpi:
+       buildable: False
+     openmpi:
+       externals:
+       - spec: "openmpi@1.4.3%gcc@4.4.7 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64"
+         prefix: /opt/openmpi-1.4.3
+       - spec: "openmpi@1.4.3%gcc@4.4.7 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64+debug"
+         prefix: /opt/openmpi-1.4.3-debug
+       - spec: "openmpi@1.6.5%intel@10.1 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64"
+         prefix: /opt/openmpi-1.6.5-intel
 
-.. warning::
-
-   When configuring an explicit splice, you as the user take on the
-   responsibility for ensuring ABI compatibility between the specs
-   matched by the target and the replacement you provide. If they are
-   not compatible, Spack will not warn you and your application will
-   fail to run.
-
-The ``target`` field of an explicit splice can be any abstract
-spec. The ``replacement`` field must be a spec that includes the hash
-of a concrete spec, and the replacement must either be the same
-package as the target, provide the virtual that is the target, or
-provide a virtual that the target provides. The ``transitive`` field
-is optional -- by default, splices will be transitive.
-
-.. note::
-
-   With explicit splices configured, it is possible for Spack to
-   concretize to a spec that does not satisfy the input. For example,
-   with the config above ``hdf5 ^mvapich2`` will concretize to user
-   ``mpich/abcdef`` instead of ``mvapich2`` as the MPI provider. Spack
-   will warn the user in this case, but will not fail the
-   concretization.
-
-.. _automatic_splicing:
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Automatic Splicing
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The Spack solver can be configured to do automatic splicing for
-ABI-compatible packages. Automatic splices are enabled in the concretizer
-config section
+Implementations can also be listed immediately under the virtual they provide:
 
 .. code-block:: yaml
 
-   concretizer:
-     splice:
-       automatic: True
+   packages:
+     mpi:
+       buildable: False
+         openmpi@1.4.3%gcc@4.4.7 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64: /opt/openmpi-1.4.3
+         openmpi@1.4.3%gcc@4.4.7 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64+debug: /opt/openmpi-1.4.3-debug
+         openmpi@1.6.5%intel@10.1 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64: /opt/openmpi-1.6.5-intel
+         mpich@3.3 %clang@9.0.0 arch=linux-debian7-x86_64: /opt/mpich-3.3-intel
 
-Packages can include ABI-compatibility information using the
-``can_splice`` directive. See :ref:`the packaging
-guide<abi_compatibility>` for instructions on specifying ABI
-compatibility using the ``can_splice`` directive.
+Spack can then use any of the listed external implementations of MPI
+to satisfy a dependency, and will choose depending on the compiler and
+architecture.
 
-.. note::
+.. _cmd-spack-external-find:
 
-   The ``can_splice`` directive is experimental and may be changed in
-   future versions.
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Automatically Find External Packages
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 
-When automatic splicing is enabled, the concretizer will combine any
-number of ABI-compatible specs if possible to reuse installed packages
-and packages available from binary caches. The end result of these
-specs is equivalent to a series of transitive/intransitive splices,
-but the series may be non-obvious.
+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).
+
+.. _concretization-preferences:
+
+--------------------------
+Concretization Preferences
+--------------------------
+
+Spack can be configured to prefer certain compilers, package
+versions, dependencies, and variants during concretization.
+The preferred configuration can be controlled via the
+``~/.spack/packages.yaml`` file for user configurations, or the
+``etc/spack/packages.yaml`` site configuration.
+
+Here's an example ``packages.yaml`` file that sets preferred packages:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+   packages:
+     opencv:
+       compiler: [gcc@4.9]
+       variants: +debug
+     gperftools:
+       version: [2.2, 2.4, 2.3]
+     all:
+       compiler: [gcc@4.4.7, 'gcc@4.6:', intel, clang, pgi]
+       target: [sandybridge]
+       providers:
+         mpi: [mvapich2, mpich, openmpi]
+
+At a high level, this example is specifying how packages should be
+concretized.  The opencv package should prefer using GCC 4.9 and
+be built with debug options.  The gperftools package should prefer version
+2.2 over 2.4.  Every package on the system should prefer mvapich2 for
+its MPI and GCC 4.4.7 (except for opencv, which overrides this by preferring GCC 4.9).
+These options are used to fill in implicit defaults.  Any of them can be overwritten
+on the command line if explicitly requested.
+
+Each ``packages.yaml`` file begins with the string ``packages:`` and
+package names are specified on the next level. The special string ``all``
+applies settings to *all* packages. Underneath each package name is one
+or more components: ``compiler``, ``variants``, ``version``,
+``providers``, and ``target``.  Each component has an ordered list of
+spec ``constraints``, with earlier entries in the list being preferred
+over later entries.
+
+Sometimes a package installation may have constraints that forbid
+the first concretization rule, in which case Spack will use the first
+legal concretization rule.  Going back to the example, if a user
+requests gperftools 2.3 or later, then Spack will install version 2.4
+as the 2.4 version of gperftools is preferred over 2.3.
+
+An explicit concretization rule in the preferred section will always
+take preference over unlisted concretizations.  In the above example,
+xlc isn't listed in the compiler list.  Every listed compiler from
+gcc to pgi will thus be preferred over the xlc compiler.
+
+The syntax for the ``provider`` section differs slightly from other
+concretization rules.  A provider lists a value that packages may
+``depend_on`` (e.g, MPI) and a list of rules for fulfilling that
+dependency.
+
+.. _package_permissions:
+
+-------------------
+Package Permissions
+-------------------
+
+Spack can be configured to assign permissions to the files installed
+by a package.
+
+In the ``packages.yaml`` file under ``permissions``, the attributes
+``read``, ``write``, and ``group`` control the package
+permissions. These attributes can be set per-package, or for all
+packages under ``all``. If permissions are set under ``all`` and for a
+specific package, the package-specific settings take precedence.
+
+The ``read`` and ``write`` attributes take one of ``user``, ``group``,
+and ``world``.
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+  packages:
+    all:
+      permissions:
+        write: group
+        group: spack
+    my_app:
+      permissions:
+        read: group
+        group: my_team
+
+The permissions settings describe the broadest level of access to
+installations of the specified packages. The execute permissions of
+the file are set to the same level as read permissions for those files
+that are executable. The default setting for ``read`` is ``world``,
+and for ``write`` is ``user``. In the example above, installations of
+``my_app`` will be installed with user and group permissions but no
+world permissions, and owned by the group ``my_team``. All other
+packages will be installed with user and group write privileges, and
+world read privileges. Those packages will be owned by the group
+``spack``.
+
+The ``group`` attribute assigns a Unix-style group to a package. All
+files installed by the package will be owned by the assigned group,
+and the sticky group bit will be set on the install prefix and all
+directories inside the install prefix. This will ensure that even
+manually placed files within the install prefix are owned by the
+assigned group. If no group is assigned, Spack will allow the OS
+default behavior to go as expected.

-Old Autotools helper scripts

-
-Autotools based tarballs come with helper scripts such as ``config.sub`` and
-``config.guess``. It is the responsibility of the developers to keep these files
-up to date so that they run on every platform, but for very old software
-releases this is impossible. In these cases Spack can help to replace these

-``automake``.
-
-Automatic helper script replacement is currently enabled by default on
-``ppc64le`` and ``aarch64``, as these are the known cases where old scripts fail.
-On these targets, ``AutotoolsPackage`` adds a build dependency on ``gnuconfig``,
-which is a very light-weight package with newer versions of the helper files.
-Spack then tries to run all the helper scripts it can find in the release, and
-replaces them on failure with the helper scripts from ``gnuconfig``.

-To enable it conditionally on different architectures, define a property and

-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()

-       # This spec has an MPI variant, and we need to enable MPI when it is on.

-
-``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.
-

-The ``Lua`` build-system 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 ``LuaBuilder`` and `LuaPackage`` base classes come 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"]
-
-One common use of this is to override warnings or flags for newer compilers, as in:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-    def luarocks_args(self):
-        return ["CFLAGS='-Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration'"]

-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.
