Summary: - Allow multiple definitions of compiler in compilers.yaml (use first instance) - Still print debug messages when there are duplicates, to assist users in finding this issue. Merging configs from different scopes can result in multiple compiler being present in the same configuration list. Instead of raising when there are duplicates, take the one with highest precedence. Print a debug message instead of raising, so that we can still diagnose this. We don't have a good way of warning the user about inconsistent configuration *in the same file* -- we'd need to dig into YAML file/line info for that. |

Spack
Spack is a multi-platform package manager that builds and installs multiple versions and configurations of software. It works on Linux, macOS, and many supercomputers. Spack is non-destructive: installing a new version of a package does not break existing installations, so many configurations of the same package can coexist.
Spack offers a simple "spec" syntax that allows users to specify versions and configuration options. Package files are written in pure Python, and specs allow package authors to write a single script for many different builds of the same package. With Spack, you can build your software all the ways you want to.
See the Feature Overview for examples and highlights.
To install spack and your first package, make sure you have Python. Then:
$ git clone https://github.com/spack/spack.git
$ cd spack/bin
$ ./spack install zlib
Documentation
Full documentation is available, or
run spack help or spack help --all.
Tutorial
We maintain a hands-on tutorial. It covers basic to advanced usage, packaging, developer features, and large HPC deployments. You can do all of the exercises on your own laptop using a Docker container.
Feel free to use these materials to teach users at your organization about Spack.

Contributing
Contributing to Spack is relatively easy. Just send us a
pull request.
When you send your request, make develop the destination branch on the
Spack repository.
Your PR must pass Spack's unit tests and documentation tests, and must be PEP 8 compliant. We enforce these guidelines with Travis CI. To run these tests locally, and for helpful tips on git, see our Contribution Guide.
Spack uses a rough approximation of the
Git Flow
branching model. The develop branch contains the latest
contributions, and master is always tagged and points to the latest
stable release.
