You're subclassing from the abstract easyblock class EasyBlock, which doesn't implement an yof the (major) step functions, it just raises a NotImplementedError. What you probably want it to derive from the ConfigureMake easyblock, which implements the configure-make-make install build procedure. You can import that easyblock with from easybuild.easyblocks.generic.configuremake import ConfigureMake That should help. BTW, the way you're patching files in the configure step is not ideal. You have two, much better, options: * create an actual patch file, using the 'diff' command (if you don't know how, tell us, we'll document it on the wiki) * using the fileinput and re Python packages, see for example https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyblocks/blob/master/easybuild/easyblocks/w/wrf.py Please try and use on of these approaches before contributing back the easyblock instead of using sed. regards, Kenneth
