Description: 
Lmod is a Lua based module system that easily handles the MODULEPATH
Hierarchical problem.  Environment Modules provide a convenient way to
dynamically change the users' environment through modulefiles. This includes
easily adding or removing directories to the PATH environment variable.
Modulefiles for library packages provide environment variables that specify
where the library and header files can be found.

Comment 2 Mukundan Ragavan 2014-05-18 22:18:03 UTC
I am taking this. This will be my first lua package, so bear with me! :D

Comment 4 Mukundan Ragavan 2014-05-27 21:05:59 UTC
Actually yes, but now that you have a newer version, I will try to do a detailed review later tonight. :)

Comment 5 Mukundan Ragavan 2014-05-28 11:53:29 UTC
Sorry I could not get to this yesterday. A couple of quick questions before I run fedora-review - 

Provides:       environment(modules)

Should this be versioned instead?

Comment 6 Orion Poplawski 2014-05-28 12:40:08 UTC
Nope - see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:EnvironmentModules

Yes - both Lmod and environment-modules implement the "modules" concept.  Common module files go in /etc/modulefiles or /usr/share/modulefiles.

There is some extra usage information in there that I think could be helpful.

Comment 9 Mukundan Ragavan 2014-05-29 19:48:38 UTC
Sounds good to me. Package APPROVED.
