Some inconsistencies on the wiki , notably the pip install of easybuild as not root user. on https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild/wiki/Installing-EasyBuild pip install --prefix=/tmp easybuild should/could be pip install --install-option="--prefix=/tmp" easybuild
Tested install of wrf with goalf toolchain, failed on netcdf dependency due to missing source: source_urls = ['http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/netcdf/ftp/'] => 404 in netCDF-4.2-goalf-1.1.0-no-OFED.eb after downloading netcdf source from another repo the wrf install succeeded. Next things to test/discover : - trying to reproduce this build on an 3rd and older machine - learn how to use software and libs provided by eb to compile own source - build my own eb packages (if needed => (latest from ECMWF) and magics++ - find out mode about module load & unload. Loading loads all dependencies but unloading only unloaded the top level package
