Hi Joachim,
I was already aware of the issue, and had a solution worked out at
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-framework/pull/2209 (which just
got merged into develop).
I'll issue a bugfix/update release (EasyBuild v3.2.1) later this week.
regards,
Kenneth

Hi,
First a big thanks to everyone who contributed to EB 3.2. I have just
upgraded and am trying to install some of the new packages. On our
installation a simple build of bzip2 for GCCcore 6.3 fails quite late.
I get
-bash-4.2$ eb bzip2-1.0.6-GCCcore-6.3.0.eb

Downgrading to EB 3.1.2 I can build a bzip2 in GCCcore 6.3.0. A diff
shows no difference for the .eb files in EB 3.1.2 and 3.2.0
A diff shows the module_generator.py has been extensively reworked
between EB 3.1.2 and 3.2.0
Best wishes
Joachim
