Update to Lmod 8.4.2 has been tested with updated module tests from vsc-testing (see https://github.ugent.be/hpcugent/vsc-testing/pull/44)

fixes #41

@boegel the fedora spec also has some other fedora/el8 lines that could be interesting. it's best to diff the 2 and port it completely (enfin, imho)

boegel commented 3 years ago

@stdweird There's probably also stuff there that we don't want (like the alternatives stuff)?

Weeding that out is not totally trivial, but should is it worth the effort?

What do you have in mind in particular?

WIP until we've verified that an Lmod cache generated with Lmod 8.4.2 can be loaded without problems with current version (Lmod 8.2.5)

stdweird commented 3 years ago

@boegel not sure. i guess the alternatives is there because the fed Lmod does not conflict with env-modules, so in fedora, you can have both installed. i'm ok with merging it

@stdweird Just tested, cache file generated with Lmod 8.4.2 can be consumed with Lmod 8.2.5 without problems.
