Find a workaround for Rocky 8 #157

Closed folmos-at-orange closed 6 months ago

folmos-at-orange commented 6 months ago

Description

Currently, khiops-python doesn't work in Rocky 8. This is because the default python there is 3.6. We should find a workaround to support it.

Questions/Ideas

Options

Make a fallback strategy for the modules part of the runner
Make it work by calling bash
Propose an installation for Khiops > 3.8.

Possible resolution strategies: 1/ attempt to use current strategy first; if it fails (i.e. no mpiexec detected), then fallback to Sh/Bash (check modules.sh exists) 2/ directly use Shell-based environment module loading.

The second strategy was adopted, as it is more portable and needs less complex code.
