Created attachment 678783 [details] [Patch] fix module clear Description of problem: 'module clear' doesn't clear loaded modules. It doesn't seem to do anything at all. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): environment-modules-3.2.10 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. module load <a module> 2. module list (see that it's loaded) 3. module clear 4. module list (see that nothing has changed, the module is still loaded) Actual results: Loaded modules are not cleared. Expected results: Loaded modules are cleared. Additional info: I'm not sure what the difference between 'module clear' and 'module purge' is supposed to be. Man pages aren't clear about it.
Thanks. I forwarded this on to the modules list. clear makes modules think that no modules are loaded, but doesn't "unload" them. purge unloads them (undoing the changes they made).
