Have you tried reinstalling the modular package manager?

==> Reinstalling modularml/packages/modular
==> Caveats
The Modular tool expects or will create a MODULAR_HOME directory.
This defaults to `~/.modular`. You can create your own, and if you do,
please add `MODULAR_HOME=/path/to/your/dir` to your environment.

Very interesting 😄.

[domesticmouse]

Might be due to my non-standard homebrew location in my homedir.

Possibly 🙂.
