I am having grief building boost for intel 2018a
(Boost-1.66.0-intel-2018a-Python-3.6.4.eb) it looks for the source at
http://download.sourceforge.net/boost/boost_1_66_0.tar.gz, which
doesn’t work any longer.
This link still works fine for me, may be an issue with your local
mirror, or perhaps (late) fallout from the SourceForge downtime this
weekend?

A working URL is e.g.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.66.0/boost_1_66_0.tar.gz,
which looks as if sourceforge restructured their URLs. The config
specifies
source_urls = [SOURCEFORGE_SOURCE]
sources = [‘%%(namelower)s_%s.tar.gz’ % ‘_’.join(version.split(‘.’))]
which implies, if the change is general to all sourceforge projects,
the SOURCEFORGE_SOURCE needs a general fix.
Not sure this was reported before. Any comments? Should I put an issue
report? Against easyconfigs or easyblocks?
