There are some excellent packages for GNU Octave, the free and open-source numerical computation language that is "highly compatible" with the proprietary and closed-source MATLAB (tm).
A researcher uses an HPC system to analyse DNA methylation data. However when they try to install some related libraries, the installation fails.
Mr. Bayes is a program for Bayesian inference and model choice across a wide range of phylogenetic and evolutionary models.
Download, extract. Note that the developers have produced a tarbomb which will require a separate directory created before download. This has been raised as a bug.
Note that more recent versions of MrBayes make much better use of autoconfiguration tools.

SCons is a software construction tool (build tool, or make tool) implemented in Python, that uses Python scripts as "configuration files" for software builds.
cd /usr/local/src/SCONS
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/scons/scons-2.3.4.tar.gz
tar xvf scons-2.3.4.tar.gz
cd scons-2.3.4
python setup.py install --prefix=/usr/local/scons/2.3.4
Change to the appropriate modules directory, check for .desc and .version and .base, create a symblink to .base
cd /usr/local/Modules/modulefiles/scons
ln -s .base 2.3.4
