Singularity isn't self contained #117

Closed chrisburr closed 4 years ago

chrisburr commented 4 years ago

Currently singularity tries to find it's starter binary in /usr/libexec/singularity/bin/starter instead of getting it from DIRACOS. It's found here:

So what happens if you try to run singularity on a machines that does not have singularity natively?

It crashes saying /usr/libexec/singularity/bin/starter can't be found.
