Why should this be included in the repository?
EasyBuild allows access to a large number of often arcane-to-build libraries and other software packages that are required for running scientific software. It is intended for HPC systems originally, but there are enough cases where one wants to replicate or create an experiment or debug something on a desktop or laptop computer at home. Since a lot of the software accessible through EasyBuild is quite specific and is itself in many cases not applicable to inclusion into Solus, I would like to request inclusion of EasyBuild so that would-be users can easily help themselves through it.
