Hi all, It took a little longer, but I think I now have a fully functional generateEasyConfig.R script that is ready for distribution; "It works on our clusters" :)... I've requested access to https://github.com/fgeorgatos/easybuild.experimental
by creating an "issue" as per instructions in the README.md, but it looks like Fotis Georgatos is on holiday... For now I forked the repo and published the generator here: https://github.com/pneerincx/easybuild.experimental/blob/master/users/pneerincx/generateEasyConfig.R DISCLAIMER 1: The generated easyconfig will contain any packages you had installed and which are available from CRAN or BioConductor repo's. If you have R packages from elsewhere you may have to tweak the generator. DISCLAIMER 2: The generator assumes you will want an R with graphics capabilities for plotting. Therefore it includes dependencies on easyconfigs for various libs. For libpng-1.6.17 and freetype-2.6 I had to create new easyconfigs and patches as these libs contain bugs and some R packages fail to compile with the plain vanilla libs. I'll create a pull request for these new easyconfigs, but it will take some time before these are available from the latest and greatest EasyBuild release...
