Hello, I accidently did a build and I noticed easybuild went ahead with the build when I didn't have foss-2016a in the system but the file name was set that way but the toolchain name was set to foss-2016.03 which is my custom toolchain. I suspected that eb would check filename to make sure it matches the toolchain version before building. Is this not the case?
