<rekado>hmm, using guile-drmaa with slurm turns out to be tricky

<rekado>as soon as I talk to slurm Guile crashes, because slurm plugins cannot find certain symbols provided by libslurm.so

<rekado>I wonder if that just means that our slurm package is misconfigured.

<rekado>the exact error is: guile: symbol lookup error: /gnu/store/37b7qnwck4pg51qia4w002i62g156xgw-slurm-19.05.3-2/lib/slurm/auth_munge.so: undefined symbol: slurm_debug

<rekado>slurm_debug is a symbol in /gnu/store/37b7qnwck4pg51qia4w002i62g156xgw-slurm-19.05.3-2/lib/libslurm.so

<rekado>so perhaps the Guix package just needs fixing

<civodul>hmm

<civodul>libslurm is not among the NEEDed bits of auth_munge.so for instance

<civodul>it's ok when SLURM dlopens it because it exports its own symbols

<civodul>how do you end up loading plugins?

<civodul>are they dlopened by libslurm or by guile-drmaa?
