I can successfully build the SLURM deb packages, which is quite a bit simpler than our current setup. https://slurm.schedmd.com/quickstart_admin.html#debuild If we combine that with a local-path repo like: https://askubuntu.com/questions/170348/how-to-create-a-local-apt-repository, mounted from the storage system, we can install and globally upgrade SLURM much more smoothly. Slight complication is building on cicus03, until we upgrade.
