[easybuild] How to deal with dependencies for R

[Martin]

Hi,

I'm trying to install R-3.1.2-goolf-1.5.14.eb.

I'm running a simple:

eb R-3.1.2-goolf-1.5.14.eb --robot -s fetch

but it fails on most of the packages in exts_list. How are people dealing
with this?

Are you just going thru the list and manually fix the versions, I keep
thinking there has to be a better way.

Also how do you (later) install an additional package? Extend the list in
exts_list and "reinstall" or provide another module? Are there established
best practices for this?

thanks,
Martin
