Ah, there is a correct way to do it ( https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/blob/develop/easybuild/framework/extension.py#L204 ): options = {'modulename': False,}

You can change the name of the module it expects to find such that it will always pass that particular check, e.g., add this to your easyconfig (untested) options = {'modulename': 'os',} Can you open an issue in the easyblock repo so we keep track of this limitation?

Looking a t the documentation, there seems nothing, this Python package provides to "import", as it is a standalone Python program (as I understand it). So "import cellxgene" fails (which happens during easybuilding at the end of a huge dependency chain) and there is no other modulename I could provide. Now I can build this either as easyblock = 'PythonPackage' (with exts_defaultclass = 'PythonPackage') or as easyblock = 'PythonBundle' - but because the final sanity check will either way be "import cellxgene" it only works with "skipsteps = ['sanitycheck']" which I really really dislike (providing "sanity_check_commands" does not override the "import" test). Question: Is there a way to only skip the "import test" for that final PythonPackage only (after all other dependencies do complete with that check), or give it a dummy modulename or something like that? So I can keep a sanity-check in? Or shouldn't I use "PythonPackage" at all for a standalone Python program even when available from PyPi?
