I think it makes sense to replace libuuid with util-linux. Seems like all 
development has been moved there. Also, I am in favour of "bundles" for small 
utilities. I rather have util-linux instead of the myriad of packages it 
provides (I know we don't install all the packages it provides individually, 
but I mean that I like the philosophy of bundling stuff).

Best,
Damian

    This may have worked, but this is probably just a workaround, it looks
    like the proper fix would be to stop depending on LibUUID and use
    util-linux instead.

    See also https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/6807
    and the recent LibUUID thread
    (https://lists.ugent.be/wws/arc/easybuild/2018-10/msg00008.html).

    Damian: thoughts on this?

    regards,

    Kenneth
