Description

+tests variant in package.py builds tests in /tmp dir but tests are not executed and dir is removed after install. It would be nice to not have +tests as an option until testing capability is added to the singularity-eos spack install.

Research direction

Start by opening the package.py file for the singularity-eos Spack package and inspect how the +tests variant is defined and used. Remove the nonfunctional variant handling, then verify that the package no longer presents +tests as an installation option; no test file is mentioned in the issue.
