Re: [easybuild] Name change of cuDNN tgz files

+1 !!!!!

I struggled with the same issue (I have no idea where Stephane got 
his/her copy).

FWIW, here's (attached) what I came up with which includes
that fix and a cleanup of the duplicate libs.

Hi,

I am trying TensorFlow-1.5.0-goolfc-2017b-Python-3.6.3.eb .  It is 
looking for a file cudnn-9.0-linux-x64-v7.0.5.15.tgz  , however I am 
currently getting cudnn-9.0-linux-x64-v7.tgz from the Nvidea download 
site.  The sha256 sum of the file I just downloaded agrees with the 
one in the EB-config.  After renaming my download to the name expected 
by EB, cuDNN builds.

Can the config be upgraded to handle both, old and new name?  Is that 
something EB supports?  Otherwise we should leave a comment inside the 
config, that renaming is a work around (one needs a manual download of 
sources anyway).

Any comments?

Best wishes
