(created using
eb --new-pr
)Including these additional libraries in
exts_list
doesn't actually affect the installation at all, since they're always installed, even when not listed explicitly as extension.The main motivation for doing this is to ensure that base R libraries that are listed as a required dependency for R libraries from CRAN are included in
exts_list
, which is required to be able to install the extensions in parallel (cfr. easybuilders/easybuild-framework#3667 and easybuilders/easybuild-easyblocks#2408).(I'll open separate PRs for
R
easyconfigs using afosscuda
toolchain, and for older versions, to facilitate submitting test reports)
