Hi Justin,
You need to include the naming scheme with a command line option:
--include-module-naming-schemes=INCLUDE-MODULE-NAMING-SCHEMES
Location(s) of extra or customized module naming
You can add that to your EB configuration (however you chose to do it) and it
will be maintained across updates then.

Hi,
I've been following the instructions to build a custom module naming
scheme, as provided at
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild/wiki/Using-a-custom-module-naming-scheme
but keep getting an error, even when implementing the example provided.
The error is "ImportError: cannot import name GENERAL_CLASS".
All eb commands fail with this error as soon as I've updated the
PYTHONPATH to add the new module naming scheme. If instead of modifing
the PYTHONPATH, I copy the file into the directory containing the
standard naming scheme python modules (i.e. under site-packages:
easybuild_framework-2.9.0-py2.7.egg/easybuild/tools/module_naming_scheme/),
then it works. However, this is not maintainable (for example upgrading
to EasyBuild ver 3.0.0 doesn't keep the changes).
I know that GENERAL_CLASS is defined in the original naming scheme
__init__.py, so I suspect that the original __init.py__ is not being
processed, but lack the depth of Python expertise to know how to remedy
this, beyond copy-and-pasting the contents of the original into the
custom naming scheme's __init__.py.
Currently we are sym-linking from the original module_naming_scheme
directory to a custom module elsewhere. This works, but isn't a robust
solution. Can anyone provide a better solution to this (or point out
where I'm going wrong)?
The following snippet provides further details of the error:
leejm@cl2n056:/pkg/suse12/eb_test> export
EASYBUILD_PREFIX=/pkg/suse12/eb_test
leejm@cl2n056:/pkg/suse12/eb_test> module load EasyBuild
