[Modules] Beginner Installation Help

[Ameya V. S. <ame...@gm...>]

Hello,

I am trying to build and install the environment modules from source.
Though the build is successful, the testinstall is currently failing.

Here's brief snippet I have captured around the failing test:
Running /home/ameya/src/environment-modules/modules/testsuite/install.00-init/080-args.exp
...
FAIL: append-path,FOO,\$foo:source,/home/ameya/src/environment-modules/modules/testsuite/modulefiles.2/putsvar
(python)
ERR[77]: '<string>:3: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\$'

$'#>

err_locatemod2 err_locatemod3 err_locatemod4 err_locatemod5
err_locatemod6 err_locatemod7 foo err_emptydir err_emptymod modfile
bar

I am currently using Fedora 39 as the base system.
Also, I don't have admin rights to install packages, for which I need
to install modules locally using the following configuration commands:

# Configure
./configure --prefix=$HOME/tools/modules
# Build
make
# Do Self test (this one works)
make test
# Install
make install
# Source Installation
source $HOME/tools/modules/init/bash

# Test The Installation (This one is currently failing with the error
captured above.)
make testinstall

Also, is there any guide I can refer to on configuring custom tools
setup configuration?
I am not sure which section of the document should I refer to for a
custom application configuration on modules?
