Hi Loris,
Two things are needed in order for --new-pr to work:
1) You need a GitHub token available, which allows EasyBuild to take
care of actually opening the pull request for you (it basically avoids
having to use the GitHub web interface for doing that);
2) You need to have an SSH key available that allows you to push a
branch in your fork of the easybuild-easyconfigs GitHub repository.
In your case, 2) is fine, 1) is not (as shown by --check-github).
There's a variety of reasons why the token may not be available:
Do you have 'keyring' Python package installed? Check with "python -c
'import keyring'.
Is the token installed in this account? (if not, use "eb
--install-github-token")
Is keyring able to access the saved token?
If your keyring installation is recent enough, you can try getting the
saved token using:
python -m keyring get github_token GITHUB_USER
(where you replace GITHUB_USER_NAME with, you guessed it, your GitHub
user name)
Note: if you share the results of these tests, be careful to not
accidentally share your GitHub token... ;)
regards,
Kenneth

Hi,
In the past I have successfully submitted new PRs. However, when I tried
today, I got:

I thought the token was needed primarily for the push, which worked. To
actually create the PR I had to press a button in Github, which I don't
remember having done in the past.
Does anyone know what the issue might be?
Cheers,
Loris
