Hi Toon, It seems like this was left unanswered...

There are a couple of examples, ranging from rather simple (e.g. ABAQUS, see [1]) to very involved (e.g. CP2K, see [2]). In general, you want to override the configure_step function, and create the config file in there. Since Dalton2011 seems to be using Makefile's, I suggest you derive from the ConfigureMake easyblock, since I'd guess the actual building/installing is done with make/make install. See for example the Doxygen easyblock [3], in which only configure_step and sanity_check_step are redefined (and build_step/install_step are inherited from ConfigureMake). Do let us know if you need help, either via the mailing list, or more directly via IM or IRC (see https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild/wiki/Contact). regards, Kenneth [1] https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyblocks/blob/master/easybuild/easyblocks/a/abaqus.py [2] https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyblocks/blob/master/easybuild/easyblocks/c/cp2k.py [3] https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyblocks/blob/master/easybuild/easyblocks/d/doxygen.py
