I have tried both EB 2.8.0 and 2.8.2 FWIW. Hmm, that's weird... It looks like this has something to do with --minimal-toolchains being enabled, is that right? Do you mind sharing both the easyconfig file you're using, and the output of "eb --show-config"? regards, Kenneth -- Dr. Alan O'Cais E-CAM Software Manager Juelich Supercomputing Centre Forschungszentrum Juelich GmbH 52425 Juelich, Germany Phone: +49 2461 61 5213<tel:%2B49%202461%2061%205213> Fax: +49 2461 61 6656<tel:%2B49%202461%2061%206656> E-mail: a.oc...@fz-juelich.de<mailto:a.oc...@fz-juelich.de> WWW: http://www.fz-juelich.de/ias/jsc/EN -- Dr. Alan O'Cais E-CAM Software Manager Juelich Supercomputing Centre Forschungszentrum Juelich GmbH 52425 Juelich, Germany Phone: +49 2461 61 5213 Fax: +49 2461 61 6656 E-mail: a.oc...@fz-juelich.de<mailto:a.oc...@fz-juelich.de> WWW: http://www.fz-juelich.de/ias/jsc/EN ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Forschungszentrum Juelich GmbH 52425 Juelich Sitz der Gesellschaft: Juelich Eingetragen im Handelsregister des Amtsgerichts Dueren Nr.
