Dear EasyBuilders,

I'd like to ask again if anyone has succeeded in building a Meep module using foss/2023a (or newer)? Our user is still asking if we can help him with a Meep module.

Thanks,
Ole

Our cluster has been upgraded to RockyLinux 8, and our minimum toolchain version is now foss/2023a.  A user is asking us to build the Meep[1] module, which we installed in our old cluster stack using Meep-1.25.0- foss-2021b.eb thanks to the list thread shown below.

There doesn't seem to be any Meep .eb file available for foss/2023a at this time.  Has anyone had the time to build the Meep module using a more recent toolchain?

Thanks a lot,
Ole

Hi Ole,

Yes, we have an easyconfig for 1.25 - see https://github.com/bear-rsg/ bear-eb/blob/main/easyconfigs/m/Meep/Meep-1.25.0-foss-2021b.eb

Regards,

Subject: [easybuild] EB file for building a recent version of Meep?

We have a user request for installing the Meep module.  However, the versions of Meep in EasyBuild are very old:
https://docs.easybuild.io/version-specific/supported-software/#meep

The .eb files would build an old version Meep-1.4.3-intel-2020a.eb from an obsolete source, or old version Meep-1.6.0-intel-2018a-Python-2.7.14.eb
with Python 2.7 :-(

The current release of Meep is 1.26:
https://github.com/NanoComp/meep/releases and installation instructions are in https://meep.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Installation/

Question: Has anyone looked at writing an .eb file for a recent version of Meep with modern compilers and Python3?

Thanks,
Ole
