Discussion Topics

  • Scott provided updates on content-addressed binary cache layout (Spack PR #48713).

    • He's implemented the manifest prefix layout changes we agreed on last week.
    • He discovered and addressed an unrelated bug affecting how the copy_only jobs get configured for our Windows stack.
    • Besides addressing remaining review comments on the PR, the only concrete tasks remaining are updating the protected publish and cache indexer services.

  • Ryan is looking more closely into what changes are needed for us to be able to benefit from sccache in our CI pipelines.

    • We would like the ability to disable launchers for some packages without needing to change the package API.

  • John's concretizer cache refactor PR (#49589) is ready for review.

  • Mike has been working on enabling gitaly bundle URIs for gitlab.spack.io (spack-infra PR #1096).

    • Once deployed, this should help prevent a common form of infrastructure-related job failure: failing to clone the git repository.
