Installing MPD

  1. Clone the spack-mpd repository.
  2. Invoke spack config edit config and add the following to your configuration: 
    config:
  extensions:
  - <path to your local spack-mpd clone>
  3. (Optional) You may find it beneficial to specify an alias in your .bashrc file to avoid typing spack mpd (e.g.): 
    alias mpd="spack mpd"

Check your installation

At this point you, should be able to invoke spack help --all and see:

$ spack help --all
...
scripting:
  mpd                   develop multiple packages using Spack for external software
...

and furthermore, if you type spack mpd --help you should see something like:

$ spack mpd -h
usage: spack mpd [-hV] SUBCOMMAND ...

develop multiple packages using Spack for external software

    zap (z)             delete everything in your build and/or install areas
