Loris,

Do you have $MODULEPATH also set to the new modules tree?  The setting
`--installpath-modules` only specifies where *new* modules should go,
but AFAIK doesn't fully override the search paths for existing modules.

The easiest way to do arch support is to have use .../easybuild/<arch> as the 
--prefix for each node type. The only stuff you should really worry about
have multiple copies of are the sources, so you can set --sourcepath to 
.../easybuild/sources to avoid that duplication. For each node then you
configure the profile so that it detects the right path(s) for `module use 
/path/to/<arch>/modules/all`

OK

  the two different architectures had already been built.

  OK, thanks.  Is there no corresponding environment variable?

Something seems to be wrong with my set-up.  I have defined my own variable

   [build@a001 ~]$ echo $EASYBUILD_INSTALLPATH_MODULES
   /trinity/shared/easybuild/arch/amd/zen3/modules

which in fact EasyBuild seems to recognise:

   [build@a001 ~]$ eb --show-config
   #
   # Current EasyBuild configuration
   # (C: command line argument, D: default value, E: environment variable, F: 
configuration file)
   #
   buildpath           (F) = /trinity/shared/easybuild/build
   containerpath       (F) = /trinity/shared/easybuild/containers
   hooks               (F) = /trinity/home/build/hooks/hpc_hooks.py
   installpath         (E) = /trinity/shared/easybuild/arch/amd/zen3/software
   installpath-modules (E) = /trinity/shared/easybuild/arch/amd/zen3/modules
   packagepath         (F) = /trinity/shared/easybuild/packages
   prefix              (E) = /trinity/shared/easybuild
   repositorypath      (F) = /trinity/shared/easybuild/ebfiles_repo
   robot-paths         (D) = 
/trinity/shared/easybuild/software/EasyBuild/4.6.2/easybuild/easyconfigs
   sourcepath          (F) = /trinity/shared/easybuild/sources

However, EasyBuild still doesn't want to build the dependency:

[build@a001 ~]$ eb Bison-3.8.2.eb 
--installpath-modules=$EASYBUILD_INSTALLPATH_MODULES --robot --dry-run --force
== Temporary log file in case of crash /tmp/eb-aqpm3paq/easybuild-vqgytl2y.log
== found valid index for

== found valid index for

Dry run: printing build status of easyconfigs and dependencies
  * [x] 
/trinity/shared/easybuild/software/EasyBuild/4.6.2/easybuild/easyconfigs/m/M4/M4-1.4.19.eb
 (module: M4/1.4.19)
  * [F] 
/trinity/shared/easybuild/software/EasyBuild/4.6.2/easybuild/easyconfigs/b/Bison/Bison-3.8.2.eb
 (module: Bison/3.8.2)
== Temporary log file(s) /tmp/eb-aqpm3paq/easybuild-vqgytl2y.log* have been 
removed.
== Temporary directory /tmp/eb-aqpm3paq has been removed.

What am I doing wrong?

Cheers,

Loris
