First of all, thanks for your contribution to EESSI!

The EESSI versions (2023.06, 2025.06, etc) are currently split by toolchains: 2023.06 supports EasyBuild toolchains foss 2022b, 2023a, and 2023b, while EESSI 2025.06 only supports foss 2024a, 2025a, and 2025b. Since this version of pv uses GCC 12.3.0, which is part of toolchain foss/2023a, it would have to go into EESSI 2023.06.

If you prefer to have a pv installation in EESSI 2025.06, we would first need to get an easyconfig for a newer toolchain merged into EasyBuild. Looking at https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-easyconfigs/blob/develop/easybuild/easyconfigs/p/pv/pv-1.7.24-GCCcore-12.3.0.eb, this should be quite straightforward, since it does not really have any dependencies. At the same time the version of pv itself could also be bumped to the latest one. Would you be up for opening such a PR? I can help in getting that merged into EasyBuild.

Ah ok! The toolchain stuff had me stumped a bit - I tried to figure it out but obviously I didn't quite get there. I'll try the easybuild PR and see how it goes - thanks for the pointers!

@fullama Do you have concrete suggestions for how we could improve our docs to make things clearer?

I was thinking about that and am making notes as I go to see if it can help there..
