Hi Pablo,

Thanks for the info.  Is there some particular reason why one would want
to use a system RPM?  I generally prefer to install all our software as
modules to an NFS share, so there is no issue of roll-out to the cluster
nodes.

I'll look into writing an easyconfig for Singularity 3.

Cheers,

Loris
