@vgvassilev : Your idea sounds nice. Implementation of such a system is, however, not realistic for us at the moment and it would also go far far beyond the simple...
How can we make some progress here? It looks as if @pcanal suggestions would be future improvements (apart from renaming few variables).
@pcanal : I agree that there is a limited danger of variable inconsistency. However, in ALICE, we are already doing it in a way similar to what you suggest: the...
I think your suggestion should cover the most important (if not all) use cases. And yes, it would be very practical if `alibuild init` could checkout the complete developing area...
In fact, the same thing happens for a number of different packages.
@dberzano , @fuhlig1 : I like this idea as it would allow us (more) easily to switch to a different compiler (clang, icc) for the complete software stack altogether.
@dberzano : Did you have a chance to study the proposal by @fuhlig? I think this a great new feature and shows that it can be achieved rather easily.
No ... the simulations are fully enabled and I confirm that the scripts seem to be broken. I will look into this.
What are the benefits of doing this apart from a few bytes? I fear this might just add extra complication in the code without having a major impact on users....
