@PetrKralCZ @pavelToman Whoever picks up on this, this seems like a relatively easy one:

• use ConfigureMake easyblock, skip the configure step
• use something like:

buildopts = 'CC="$CC" CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -fno-strict-aliasing" '

preinstallopts = "mkdir -p %(installdir)s/bin && "
installopts = "DEST_DIR=%(installdir)s/bin"

• first try with copy of HTSlib and libdeflate that is included; only if that works smoothly quickly, maybe give it a try to replace those with proper build dependencies (since static linking is used)

Don't spend more than ~1 hour on this, if it turns out to be a time sink, we'll just inform the user that we can't motivate the required effort for this one (since usage will be very limited)
