#1946: sim setup should create a section for the current machine
Reporter: Roland Haas Status: open Milestone: Version: development version Type: enhancement Priority: minor Component: SimFactory
Comment (by Roland Haas):
@{557058:1671c5c3-29cc-4e83-9850-a152d33a6235} also came across this issue of `sourcebasedir` not being set when running `sim setup-silent` on known machines and in a directory different from what simfactory has in its machine database (private communication).
This ticket may serve as a catchall to collect discussion and possible patches.
The issue does not occur in the “official” workflow (see SF paper: [https://arxiv.org/pdf/1008.4571%5D(https://arxiv.org/pdf/1008.4571) page 4, “A. Managing Source Code“), which would avoid ever running `sim setup` on the cluster (and never run `GetComponents` there either).
