Hi Ken, all,
I am pondering on how to reduce future support effort.

I think that running EasyBuild with versions of env-modules <3.2.10 is
basically
looking for trouble, because those versions are known to contain bugs that
affect
you exactly in the domain where EasyBuild would excel (ie. using multiple
modules).
In fact, I think someone should only be able to run EB with --strict=ignore or
such,
whenever the underlying modules technology is known to contain bugs. Would you
agree?
best,
