1. I'm concerned about this wrapping of nab. It's a principle of engineering
to use simple tools. Again i didn't dig into the details, but why do we need
the awesome power of python to do wrapping ? The Bourne shell is already
required to install and use Amber. It is not good practice to do everything
with one tool only because one does not know or does not want to learn another.
2. I'm getting mixed results: 3 repos updated at Sat Feb 11 18:57:28 EST 2017
and then make veryclean:
a. ./configure -mkl --skip-python intel
Python 2.6.6
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.7 (Santiago)
cp -f /tmp/amber/AmberTools/src/FEW/FEW.pl /tmp/amber/bin
cp: `/tmp/amber/AmberTools/src/FEW/FEW.pl' and `/tmp/amber/bin/FEW.pl' are the same file
make[2]: *** [install] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/amber/AmberTools/src/FEW'
b. ./configure --with-python /usr/local/anaconda2/bin/python gnu
Python 2.7.12 :: Anaconda custom (64-bit)
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.7 (Santiago)
cp -f /tmp/amber/AmberTools/src/FEW/FEW.pl /tmp/amber/bin
cp: `/tmp/amber/AmberTools/src/FEW/FEW.pl' and `/tmp/amber/bin/FEW.pl' are the same file
make[2]: *** [install] Error 1
c. ./configure --skip-python pgi
Python 2.7.5
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.2 (Maipo)
Installation of Amber16 (serial) is complete at Sat Feb 11 19:36:49 EST 2017.
This may be a cp exit status issue; I'll investigate tomw.
