Hi Niek,
EasyBuild v1.x used to fall back to ConfigureMake if no easyblock was
specified and if no software-specific easyblock could be found.
We deprecated this behavior in EasyBuild v1.16.0, and then removed the
fallback entirely in EasyBuild v2.0, resulting in the error you're seeing.
The documentation page for deprecated functionality only mentions stuff
that is deprecated now and will be removed in the future.
Functionality already removed is documented on a separate page (which is
linked from the 'deprecated' page).
More specifically, see
http://easybuild.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Removed-functionality.html#depr-configuremake-fallback-eb1
.
regards,
Kenneth

When I try to install an easyconfig that does not include an easyblock
I get
ERROR: [...] NO LONGER SUPPORTED since v2.0: [...] see

for more information
When I go to the deprecated functionality page there is nothing
documented for easyconfig authors:
For authors of easyconfig files:
/(nothing yet)/
Should I not get the "no longer supported" error, or is the deprecated
functionality page not updated?
Thanks,
Niek
