Hi,
First many thanks for your quick reply!
My bug report is #933782 and not #933732 but by chance I saw your reply ;-)
I suspect that the prefix variable should be set at build time (may be it is the
one given to the configure script (--prefix=...)
I was trying to look at https://salsa.debian.org/mckinstry/modules
but it seems to be still the previous version there.
Thanks,
Patrice

Patrice, thanks for filing the bug report. I was just looking at that bug
myself. The definition of g_tclextlib at line 41 is in new code added since
the version 4.2.2 that's in Buster.
I'm NOT a Tcl programmer or Modules guru. But is "prefix" something that
should be compiled into the modules at build time, or initialized in
/etc/environment-modules/siteconfig.tcl, or maybe in a file
/etc/environment-modules/rc?
As a workaround I edited modulecmd.tcl to replace "${prefix}" with "/usr"
at line 41. That allows /usr/share/modules/init/bash to complete
successfully and define function "module" correctly.
Hope this helps.
