Hi Clyde,
You're hitting a known issue, see:
https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/issues/2186.
For now, you should set up the /Core/* location in $MODULEPATH outside
of EasyBuild (just like you would for users who consume the modules
you're installing).
regards,
Kenneth

Hi
I'm trying to do a new install and when I ask easybuild to build
foss-2016a (this is the *first* install). Easybuild fails because it
can't find the modules for dependencies it's just built. If I
manually edit the MODULEPATH, the build will continue. Is there a way
to have it learn the new module paths it's created?
Just for a bit of background, we're running easybuild in a container
to generate rpm packages for deploy elsewhere, so the container will
likely be completely empty when a build is run.
e.g.
%eb foss-2017a.eb -r --package
--module-naming-scheme=CategorizedModuleNamingScheme
