Hi Niek, We have support for installing software through a question/answer system. But you will need a custom easyblock for it. For example, take a look at the Mathematica easyblock: https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyblocks/blob/master/easybuild/easyblocks/m/mathematica.py
The install path can be access by `%(installdir)s` variable in an easyconfig.
