Hi Malcolm,
I think the issue is that there are no Guix or Nix people around at a
Supercomputing conference.
I'm aware of it, and want to play around with it, but haven't found the
time.
There is work being done on it though, see for example
http://arxiv.org/pdf/1506.02822.pdf .
regards,
Kenneth

Hi Malcom,
I don't think you're missing the point. Kenneth has spoken to the guix and nix
people at fosdem this year but afaik theres no work to support scientific
software in guix.
That said, its probably a great solution. How might we migrate eb and lmod to
utilise guix?

Hi, y'all,
Alas, I was not present at SC15 nor the BOF.
Do you think the guix package manager deserves a place at this table?
(http://www.gnu.org/software/guix/)
I'm surprised to find it missing from the fray. Or am I missing the point?
Cheers,
Malcolm Cook

Subject: [Lmod-users] Getting Scientific Software Installed BoF at SC15
Hi all,
All materials from the "Getting Scientific Software Installed" BoF
session at SC15 are now available at
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild/wiki/SC15-BoF-session .
The session included lightning talks on Lmod, EasyBuild and Spack + an
interactive survey & discussion.
The session was really well attended, with about 120 people finishing
the interactive survey we ran during the 2nd half of the session.
Thank you to everyone who joined the BoF!
As a reminder, related sessions this week at SC15 include:
* Tue Nov 17th - 3.30pm (room 13B): BoF session on Performance
Reproducibility in HPC
(http://sc15.supercomputing.org/schedule/event_detail?evid=bof145)
* Wed Nov 18th - 11.30am (room 18AB): Spack paper presentation
(http://sc15.supercomputing.org/schedule/event_detail?evid=pap264)
* Wed Nov 18th - 2pm: Lmod hands-on tutorial @ TACC booth
regards,
Kenneth
