Error with Python version support

[verdurin]

Even when the Python version is specified as a parameter, this does not appear to be processed for the output filename:

./easy_update.py --pyver 2.7 ~/R-3.5.2-foss-2018b-Python-2.7.15.eb

easy_update only works in a single mode. It can update R or Python, but not both at the same time. From your example, only the R packages would be updated. You would have to update the Python dependency separately from its base easyconfig file. The erroneous biocver not set message has been fixed. Version 2.0 interpolates %(pyver) and %(rver)s correctly now.

thanks for your feedback with easy_update. Today's commit has the new feature you requested.
