Thanks to the kind Lmod maintainer (Orion Poplawski) of the Fedora/EPEL
repository, the Lmod version in EPEL has been updated today from 6.6.3
to 7.8.16! Thanks also to the people who added to the Bugzilla request
shown below!
Good news! Any gotchas when moving from 6.6 to 7.8?
Yes, it's great to finally have a modern Lmod via an RPM installation!
I had one minor gotcha, namely an incompatible .modulerc file containing
"hide-module zlib/1.2.8". Removing that file solved the problem.
Welcome to the future! (well, Lmod 7.0 was released Nov 2016, so...)
There's a couple of other gotchas: the format/filename of the Lmod
spider cache file has changed, and the internal format for module
collections has changed.
See also https://github.com/TACC/Lmod/blob/master/README.md#lmod-70 and
