deal with metapackage easyconfigs #421

Open boegel opened 11 years ago

boegel commented 11 years ago

We need a better way to deal with metpackage easyconfigs, e.g. compiler toolchains (goolf, ictce, ...), biodeps, HPCBIOS_*.

Right now, they're put right next to actual software packages, that should be changed (e.g. move them in a meta subdir, ...).

It also facilitates bootstrapping an EasyBuild-driven environment: these sets correspond to first-priority targets.

fyi. HPCBIOS_LifeSciences makes for a good test-case for this, since it has worked solidly over several years across multiple clusters (as opposed to HPCBIOS_Bioinfo which has always been ...pain to erect :)
