Test on SL6 failed with on import lzma, I'll figure out what's going on (may be an outdated installation of the Python 3.5.1 module there).

Hmm, the problem persists even after making sure the installation is fully up-to-date:

bash-4.1$ module load Python/3.5.1-intel-2016a
bash-4.1$ python -c "import lzma"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/apps/gent/SL6/sandybridge/software/Python/3.5.1-intel-2016a/lib/python3.5/lzma.py", line 26, in <module>
    from _lzma import *
ImportError: No module named '_lzma'

May be due to a missing dependency...

To build LZMA support in Python 3.3 or more recent, XZ must be around. Our SL6 system has xz-devel missing, while our CentOS7 systems do have it, explaining the issue.

I'll look into adding a dep on XZ for Python 3.5.1.

fix for the lzma issue is in #2887

issue is fixed on top of rebuilt Python 3.5.1 from #2887, see incoming test report
