Hi everyone,

I was following the guide to setup my own easyblock repository.
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild/wiki/Setting-up-your-own-easyblocks-repository

That all works fine.

Though if I want to modify an existing easyblock and copy it to my own
repository (and leave the original file in place) it will still use the
original file instead of my modified version.
It probably has to do with the fact that my own repository is listed later in
the path (PYTHONPATH) then the standard repository. Though the guide states
why the standard repository should come earlier in the path.

Is there a way to tell easybuild to "overload" the original easyblock (coming
with easybuild) if one is found in my own repository?

This will also help me with quickly updating to newer EasyBuild releases,
while my own repository is outside of the EasyBuild tree then.

regards,
 Fokko
