I am happy to announce the release of Lmod 7.7. The major change is that
now Lmod supports reference counting for PATH-like variables. This feature
was first released in 7.6.14. The details are discussed here:
http://lmod.readthedocs.io/en/latest/077_ref_counting.html
There are some other features. Here is the update of new features and bug
fixes:
Features:
1. Lmod now uses reference counting for PATH-like variables
2. Support for MODULEPATH_INIT. If found use
<install_dir>/init/.modulespath to specify initial MODULEPATH.
3. Tracing now reports changes to MODULEPATH
4. Support for ml keyword <prop_name> added
Bug Fixes:
1. Lmod now uses the spider cache when restoring when LMOD_CACHED_LOAD=yes
2. Lmod now supports a module with a single leading underscore. It reports
an error if there are two or more.
Enjoy,
R.
