Description erikj 2006-12-19 23:09:37 UTC

We have discovered that the environment-modules package has a problem
with it's "modules" module.

A "module load modules" command gives an error due to an erroneous
"module use" command at line 27 in /usr/share/Modules/modulefiles/modules.

wolfberry8% module load modules
ModuleCmd_Use.c(186):ERROR:11: Usage is 'use [-a|--append] dir [dir ...]'
modules(27):ERROR:102: Tcl command execution failed: module             use


Looking at the file, there is an incomplete "use" command at the end of
the module.

module          use

should be

module          use             /usr/share/Modules

This was observed in environment-modules-3.2.3-2.fc6, which seems
to be the same version in the 'development' directory.

I was messing around with the configure files when I realized the issue seems
to be that VERSIONPATH is not set when --with-version-path is unset AND module
versioning is off.  But the "modules" module file uses the @VERSIONPATH@ macro.

A quick fix that worked for me was to just specify the path on the configure
line like this:

 %build
-%configure --disable-versioning --prefix=%{_datadir}
--exec-prefix=%{_datadir}/Modules
+%configure --disable-versioning --prefix=%{_datadir}
--exec-prefix=%{_datadir}/Modules --with-version-path=/usr/share/Modules/modulefiles
 make %{?_smp_mflags}

Fixed in 3.2.3-3.fc6
