on this cluster, I would suggest to use Guix like so:
   guix package -i cmake gcc-toolchain gmp
and so on (openmpi?).
To update:
   guix pull
   guix package -u
(you will end up with cmake 3.25.1, gcc 12.2.0 and gmp 6.2.1).

I have not tried to compile cado-nfs; it might also be an option to add a
package definition to Guix proper, or to the guix-hpc channel.
