    One month of PyPi making up a 3rd of all BioConda deployments. I would be a bad statistician, if I would simply believe that. It is, of course, possible.

    As we recommend installing Snakemake via Conda (or use it via #easybuild or #spack) and installation via pip is rather difficult for all dependencies, I don't think the comparison will make much sense. (PyPi is about 8x compared to the plugin, BioConda > 1e6 in total). The real issue is that these numbers (total vs. monthly as a maximum) aren't really comparable in the first place. Hence, my rather generic question (or perhaps there is an API).

    (But seriously: It is not worth investing too much time for this.)

  2. Thought it might be fun to install some software on my laptop using @easybuild but

    🤨

  3. #HPC tooting friends: Has anyone seen problems using BeeGFS as a backing file store for #spack or #easybuild? Interested in any information we can find. Our symptom is stray temporary directories that donʻt get deleted when done with use by the package manager.

    So, should we expect that the next release of #EasyBuild has a #COBOL toolchain? 😁

  5. One thing I really like when going to the office is random coffee mugs that pop up in the coffee room that make my day… #EasyBuild #EESSI
