D’oh!

Hmm!  The reason we keep different versions of slurm is because one
always needs a slurm client compatible with the version of slurmd
running on the target cluster.  And so yes, we’d need ‘slurm-minimal’
for each version.

But that doesn’t sound great so I’m not sure.

Another possibility would be to do the opposite: keep ‘slurm’ without
MariaDB & co., and have a ‘slurm-rest’ (?) variant with all the bells
and whistles?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
