Hi there!
I'm trying to update the eb version in our cluster, but I'm getting the following error:
$ eb --install-latest-eb-release

Do you have any clues on what's happening?
Thank you very much,

Hi Marc,
It was a known issue, and some more details and a fix were provided in easybuilders/easybuild-easyblocks#3358, but that requires you to do eb --install-latest-eb-release --include-easyblocks-from-pr 3358.
However, a better fix was just merged in #20818, and this should allow you to just use eb --install-latest-eb-release again. Please give it a try, the --install-latest-eb-release option should make sure that it automatically pulls in this updated easyconfig for version 4.9.2.
Great, thanks a lot!
