EUM'26 - Day 1
The 11th EasyBuild User Meeting (EUM'26) took place in the beautiful city of Guimarães, the home of the EuroHPC supercomputer Deucalion.
The EasyBuild community (and beyond) gathered again to learn more about recent developments, letting HPC sites that use EasyBuild showcase how they are doing so, attend presentations on projects (loosely) related to EasyBuild, and discuss the future of EasyBuild, including the (potential) impact of LLMs.
The event was sponsored by Centro Nacional de Computação Avançada (the Portuguese National Center for Advanced Computing), INESC TEC, Fujitsu, Do IT Now, Inuits, Microsoft Azure, and NVIDIA.
This blog post covers the first day of the 3-day event, see also day 2 and day 3.
Interactive Shell to Debug Failed Builds
One of the big enhancements in EasyBuild v5 is the support for starting an interactive shell to debug failed builds
by simply running the auto-generated cmd.sh script.
We would all prefer that no installation ever fails, but there will be times when they do.
The new interactive shell feature provides a way to explore the build environment and debug the failure.
EasyBuild v5.1.0
EasyBuild v5.1.0 was released on 26 May 2025.
This version includes a couple of changes and enhancements we want to briefly highlight in this blog post.
