[yt-users] yt/dev module out of date on Kraken?

Hi Kevin,

Alas, the 2GB of space on Kraken is the least of your problems. Building on
Kraken is notoriously difficult. The modules on kraken are maintained by
the NICS staff, not us. You might give them a shout and ask them to make a
newer module.

However, what I would recommend instead is to move your data over to
nautilus, install your own yt in your home directory. For me, it takes
1.1GB for everything. Personally, this hasn't been a problem for me, though
I think if you need another GB or so, the NICS staff may just give it to
you if you ask. You'll need to first do

$ module swap PE-intel PE-gnu
$ module swap mpt mpt/2.04

before running the install script. After that, yt should work smoothly on
nautilus. Make sure to run both of those module swaps before using yt, and
in any job scripts if you submit jobs to the queue on nautilus.

I hope this is helpful.
