Just to second... I had to do a Westmere build yesterday
on compute nodes with no external net and your(/Kenneth's)
fix worked for me.
Got to try the new --include-easyblocks.... that's pretty sweet and
was much needed. Thanks for whoever made that happen!

Thanks. This seemed to work fine.
Thanks for the confirmation, future versions of EasyBuild should now
install offline without problems (using an EasyBuild version that
includes the patched EasyBuildMeta easyblock, so > 2.8.1).

I patched the EasyBuildMeta easyblock so that the vsc-install source
tarball is also picked up, which should result into supporting
offline installation of EasyBuild-with-EasyBuild (note: the
bootstrap script currently still requires to be online).
Can you give this a try?
You can download the updated easyblock from [1] (see [2] for raw
link), and use the updated easyconfig from [3] (see [4] for raw
link), and then run this on an offline system:
eb EasyBuild-2.8.1.eb --include-easyblocks $PWD/easybuildmeta.py
Please let me know how that turns out.
