4.1.1

on GitHub

• Make separator lines, used on display command result for instance, fit small screen width.
• Install: give ability to build and install Modules from git repository without documentation if sphinx-build cannot be found.
• Install: adapt configure script and Makefiles to support installation on FreeBSD, Solaris and OS X systems. (fix issue#147)
• Rework code generated by autoinit for sh-kind shells to avoid use of local variables as those are defined differently through the sh variants. (also fix issue#147)
• Init: use a default value on undefined variables in sh-kind scripts to avoid unbound variables in bash -eu mode. (fix issue#151)
• Correctly detect terminal column number on Solaris.
• Init: fix csh init script to get compatibility with pure csh shell
• Sanitize content of MODULEPATH before using it at run-time, to make potential relative paths absolute, remove trailing slashes, etc. (fix issue#152)
• Check loaded modulefiles still exists before displaying statistics on them during a list action.
• Use a specific reference counter variable name (MODULES_MODSHARE_<VAR> instead of <VAR>_modshare) for DYLD-specific variables. (fix issue#153)
• No error raise when updating a DYLD or LD path-like variable on OS X when System Integrity Protection (SIP) is enabled. In this situation, these variables are not exported in subshell context, so they appear undefined.
• Init: protect arguments passed to the _moduleraw sh function from interfering content of current working directory. (fix issue#154)
• Install: move hostname RPM requirement to the compat sub-package.
• Start pager process only if some text has to be printed. (partially fix issue#146)
• Ignore PAGER environment variable to configure Modules pager to avoid side effects coming from a general pager configuration not compatible with Modules pager handling. (fix issue#146)
• Do not blank anymore default Modules pager options if default pager is less when the LESS environment variable is defined. (fix issue#146)

Warning: With this bugfix release, changes have been made on the pager setup to avoid side effects coming from the system general pager configuration. As a result PAGER environment variable is now ignored and MODULES_PAGER should be used instead to adapt Modules pager configuration at run-time.
