Would it be an idea not to use “exits_list” for Perl, Python, and R modules/packages? Instead: have (easyblock) install meotodhs that use CPAN, pip/easy_install (python), and install.packages (R), with dependency Perl, Python, and R installations? Then each module/packages would have its own directory int he easyconfig tree.

There is a good Perl spec and script for the dependency resolution called cpanfile.

It doesn't generate easyconfigs, it generates entries for exts_list, in the right order. There's an open PR for it, see https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-framework/pull/897 . regards, Kenneth > > stijn > > On 11/20/2014 03:23 PM, Heywood, Todd wrote: >> Hi, >> >> Good question.
