Dear all, I'm new to EasyBuild and am wondering if anyone can help me out. I'm trying to build the foss tools on an Ivy Bridge cluster, and it fails due to permission issues when trying to install MPC. The relevant errors look like:

I started with a clean directory, so this is all stuff that EasyBuild has made and is then trying to copy over. This happens with lots of versions of foss, (2020a,b, 2019b), always with MPC (but bison, flex, m4 all make successfully before this failure). I did try chmodding everything before reinstalling, but that didn't help, and I've been unable to find any solutions online. The full log is attached. Any suggestions would be most welcome! Thanks, Jon
