Hi,

Sorry, if that is a silly question, but  I couldn’t see this documented.
I have a user who likes to use the system EasyBuild to build packages in their 
private space using the modules we provided.  If in user mode, I load the EB 
module and initiate an install using the system eb config and adding 
--installpath=$HOME/eb_test to the build statement.  The build will not use the 
toolchains (e.g. foss/2016b) already systemwide installed, but will rebuild it 
in $HOME/eb_test.

Obviously if I don’t add an installpath, it will fail since I don’t allow users 
to write the centrailised location.

Is using the systemwide module and extending this privately supported in EB?

Best wishes
  Joachim
