OS specific notes - easybuilders/easybuild GitHub Wiki

Ubuntu 10.04

  • install tcl8.5 and tcl8.5-dev (apt-get and friends)
  • download environment-modules and configure/make/sudo make install

After this (with a working g++), the demo procedure pretty much worked out of the box (except for a minor issue with a Python module loading, but that's beside the point).

Ubuntu 11.10

  • install Tcl and environment-modules:
  • sudo apt-get install tcl8.5-dev
  • download environment-modules and configure/make/sudo make install
  • add default install path to PATH
export PATH=/usr/local/Modules/3.2.9/bin:$PATH
  • install g++ (only gcc is installed by default)
sudo apt-get install g++
  • install 32-bit libc:
  • fixes missing bits/predefs.h error message
sudo apt-get install libc6-dev-i386
  • adjust LIBRARY_PATH to fix /usr/bin/ld: cannot find crti.o: No such file or directory
export LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
  • this (maybe) also needs to set when using the built GCC compilers

Arch Linux

  • install Tcl, Python 2.x and make:
pacman -S tcl python2 make
  • download and configure/make/make install environment-modules

OSX 10.7.4

  • Tcl is installed, but you may have to disable X when building the environment-modules (configure --without-x)
  • can build GCC,OpenMPI and Lapack but fails to build ATLAS
