Markus, you are absolutely right. The only way to do what I want is the following: $ eb GCC-5.4.0-2.26.eb -D --hide-deps=M4,Bison,flex,zlib,binutils,GCCcore --hide-toolchains=GCCcore or to specify the dependencies that need to be hidden in the EASYBUILD_HIDE_DEPS environment variable. I think

Hello, Although we wold love to use EB in production there is still one thing that stops us from doing so. Since we need to keep the modules list in Lmod as clean as possible it is essential for us to be able to tell EB to automatically look for dependencies within hidden modules even if not

Thank you guys for your replies. I'm happy to see I'm not the only one that would benefit from this. I totally agree with Kenneth on how this should be implemented. Am I wrong to assume that a positive side effect of this approach is to make the "hiddendependencies" option for easyconfig files

Hello easybuilders, I am testing EB + Lmod with hierarchical naming and I am trying to reconcile the huge amount of modules generated by EB with the need of reducing users' confusion by showing only the strictly necessary modules. The most logical way of doing so seems to be by creating hidden
