Following #3323 , a new EasyConfig parameter is introduced in the DEPENDENCIES section to allow EasyConfig writers to specify an additional path to find dependency modules within the EasyConfig. The
moddependpathspath (or paths, it may be either a string or a list/tuple) is prepended(*) to MODULEPATH before load actions in the generated Lmod file.A new function in
easyblock.py,make_module_deppaths()is introduced to support this, and a unit test for it is provided.(*)
module_generator.use()is invoked, rather than explicitly specifying MODULEPATH.
