I am aware of the command line options. However, one needs to keep in
mind where should the particular softeare be installed. Simplest would
be to put that info inside *.eb.

Thank you for your answers.
Gizo: what specific configuration setting would you like to specify in
an easyconfig file, what's your use case?
I need to install software on a different location. For this
usually I reset easybuild env variables.
However, it would be good if as an option I could provide this info
in an easyconfig file.
What would be other preferred setting for such cases?
You don't need to unset or redefine the environment variables for
this, you can use the --prefix or --installpath command line option
(which wins over $EASYBUILD_PREFIX & $EASYBUILD_INSTALLPATH, resp).
Try playing around with "eb --show-config" in a session where
$EASYBUILD_INSTALLPATH is set, with and without using
"--installpath=/tmp" as additional option.

I guess the question was a bit misleading. I meant if one could
have those config variables in *.eb file
