Hi Davide,
I had fought with this business early on. IMHO, extracting from isos is the
more robust approach.
I'm going to throw an idea and see how far it goes:
- you could assume that the .iso are just 2 extra sources of the build,
extracted to arrive on subdirs
- a parent tarball (manufactured by you) may deliver a symlink farm putting
things together - if that works all
maybe you can get away with the last one, but extracting the 2nd iso under the
1st one and moving things around;
have a look at GCC with its dependencies, there is some relevant sorcery going
on there.

Subject: [easybuild] Issue with Matlab 2016b sources
Hello,
I have a question about the Matlab source files. In the Matlab easyconfig files
the sources are expected to be in tar.gz format. However I have always received
the installer in as an iso image. Until version 2016a it wasn't that big of a
deal since i have generated the tar.gz by mounting the iso and creating the
archive. With 2016b the installer is split into two iso disks.
So do you know if there is a way to get the tar.gz instead of the iso? If not,
how would you suggest to tackle the issue?
