[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1422755@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Jan Groenewald (jan-aims):

environment-modules (3.2.10-8) fails to execute batch (atd) jobs under
bash 4.3.11(1)-release. This is likely caused by changes in bash
functions in follow-up to shellshock fixes to bash.

Test with environment-modules (3.2.10-8) uninstalled and this sample
script:

cat /tmp/ls.sh

#!/bin/bash
ls > out.ls

Schedule with 'batch < /tmp/ls.sh' and you will receive the correct
output.

Now install environment-modules and try the same. You will receive an
error along these lines:

sh: 46: BASH_FUNC_module%%=() {  eval `/usr/bin/modulecmd bash $*`
}: not found
sh: 46: export: BASH_FUNC_module%%: bad variable name

Admittedly, this has to be fixed upstream, but we do have a broken
package as it stands.

Tested on Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.13.0-43-generic x86_64).

** Affects: modules (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
