Installing complex stacks of software on HPC can be challenging, and is often seen as an expert task for sysadmins.

The “spack” package manager from LLNL makes things a bit easier – when it works, it works well. I will give a brief description of my experiences of using it, and show how to add your own package without too much pain.
