Description
This PR updates the NASA Discover (NCCS) tier1 site configuration to "match" the new tier2 discover-gmao where I'm doing testing. It sort of "modernizes" the tier1 discover and hopefully will let @ashley314 or myself use the
util/gmao/batch_install.shscript to do easier installs a la @climbfujiI've also added
py-cmoceanas a dependency ofgeos-gcm-env(see #1502), updates several package versions in common configs, and includes GMAO-internal site and utility improvements.Dependencies
I guess #2026 ? Technically, this PR has the same update to submodules. I wanted to get this PR in just so I didn't forget and to make sure nothing breaks CI elsewhere.
