Base software kit

These software packages should be installed on every machine we provision, regardless of their purpose.

• nano - text editor
• vim - text editor
• nfs-common - allow NFS mounts
• wget - wget a file from the Internet
• iproute2 - more modern instantiations of ifconfig and a lot of other network tools
  • net-tools for those among us who like ifconfig
• gcc - most recent C compiler (modules can support as many versions as we'd like but we need at least one)

On a cluster, add these:

• C3 tools (see the C3 tools page)
