EasyBuild is a software build and installation framework that allows you to manage (scientific) software on High Performance Computing (HPC) systems in an efficient way.
EasyBuild 4.4.2 supports 2469 different software packages (incl. toolchains, bundles):
NOTE this eats up lots of disk space with multiple compiler and tool chains as you will see, hence installed in /sanscratch/CENTOS7

Continuing with installation of greentail52's local disk array with astropy. Note: had to manually install numpy in python 3.8.6 (easybuild misconfiguration, or rather, 2 of 10k tests failed so no go, really?)

I noticed emcee loaded two python versions, the default being 3.7.2 (requires centos7). But you can unload this python module and load module Python/2.7.15-GCCcore-8.2.0 and emcee will import. That means with 2.7.15 emcee could run on centos6 nodes.
Flexible but weird.
