Packages using nonstandard python search paths

[Micket]

After going through and dropping the standard PYTHONPATH environment variables for my EBPYTHONPREFIXES change, I've found:

• OpenMM-7.7.0-foss-2022a.eb
• OpenMM-7.7.0-foss-2022a-CUDA-11.7.0.eb
• OpenMM-8.0.0-foss-2023a-CUDA-12.1.1.eb
• OpenMM-8.0.0-foss-2022a-CUDA-11.7.0.eb
• OpenMM-8.0.0-foss-2023a.eb
• OpenMM-8.0.0-foss-2022a.eb

uses the nonstandard path

'PYTHONPATH': 'lib/python%(pyshortver)s/site-packages/OpenMM-%(version)s-py%(pyshortver)s-linux-%(arch)s.egg'

which is just strange

• FSL-6.0.5.1-foss-2021a.eb uses 'PYTHONPATH': ['fsl/lib/python%(pyshortver)s/site-packages'] (seems like an easy fix?)
• CIRIquant-1.1.2-20221201-foss-2021b-Python-2.7.18.eb uses 'PYTHONPATH': 'lib/python%(pyshortver)s/site-packages/CIRIquant' (is the module file even correct by specifying the subdir here?)
• CRISPResso2-2.1.2-foss-2020b*.eb uses 'PYTHONPATH': ['lib/python%(pyshortver)s/site-packages/CRISPResso2'] (and here?)

There is also

• Graphviz
• Spark
• SRA-Toolkit
• Stata
• PLUMED
• PySCF
• vcflib
• pyMBE
• pypmt
• pycubescd
• PYTHIA
• gmsh
• GIMIC
• Claire
• FLANN
• FIGARO
• NanoCaller
• ADIOS
• ASAP
• ESIpy
• KMC
• SUPPA
• SISSO++
• IsoQuant
• TELEMAC-MASCARET
• HOOMD-blue
• MEME
• manta
• MBX

which are use something silly like lib or bin or lib/python as their paths. Sigh. So many. Some of these matter more than others.

I guess they way forward for those would be to beat them into submission by making sure they use the default lib/python*/site-packages (for example via postinstallcmds), so $EBPYTHONPREFIXES also works for them (and then eventually forbidding easyconfigs from setting PYTHONPATH directly);
