Hello, I am currently doing my first steps with easybuild and I created an easyconfig for bowtie2. The difficulty here is that it seems that the extractCmd() in filetools.py is unable to handle the link of the package (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bowtie-bio/files/bowtie2/2.0.0-beta7/bowtie2-2.0.0-beta7-linux-x86_64.zip/download). Easybuild returns the following error: EasyBuildError: "EasyBuild crashed with an error (at easybuild/easybuild/tools/filetools.py:146 in extractCmd): Unknown file type from file /home/clusterusers/claczny/easybuild_sources/b/bowtie2/bowtie2-2.0.0-beta7-linux-x86_64.zip/download (['/home/clusterusers/claczny/easybuild_sources/b/bowtie2/bowtie2-2', '0', '0-beta7-linux-x86_64', 'zip/download'])"
It is of no surprise to me that automating steps like this can be very tricky since it is not always known what the naming convention of the package will be, it's highly heterogeneous after all unfortunately. Is there a way to create just an easyconfig for this package or does it involve e.g. Changes in filetools.py to make it work? Thank you very much.
