Thanks.  In fact, duckduckgoing

  +easybuild "keep the build"

lead me to 

  https://boegel-eb.readthedocs.io/en/XDG_CONFIG/Release_notes.html

This is for EB version 1.16.1 from 2014 :-)

I then realised the 'cleanup' was the word I should have been searching
for.  

In the current documentation

  https://docs.easybuild.io/en/latest/version-specific/help.html

it says:

  --cleanup-builddir    Cleanup build dir after successful installation. 
(default: True; disable with –disable-cleanup-builddir)
  --cleanup-tmpdir      Cleanup tmp dir after successful run. (default: True; 
disable with –disable-cleanup-tmpdir)

There seem to me to be a couple of issues with this:

1. If my attempt to build fails, I might think these are the wrong
   options, because my installation/run was not successful.  It is only
   successfully if I do a partial build.
2. Should 'installation' be replaced by 'run' for '--cleanup-build' or
   is there some difference between 'installation' and 'run'?

Cheers,

Loris
