note that those are directories, not the actual modules (the modules
are files). you have to put the actual modules somewhere and point the
ModulePath to that 'somewhere'
generally, to avoid this kind of troubles, I created local directory
under my home directory and install all the programs there, using:
./configure --prefix=$HOME/local
make
make install
that does the proper installation, I just added ~/local/bin to my PATH
(+ some other minor stuff like MANPATH etc.), here's relevant part of
.tcshrc
setenv PATH ${HOME}/local/bin:/other/stuff
setenv MANPATH ${HOME}/local/man:/other/stuff
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /other/stuff:${HOME}/local/lib
above works for csh derivatives, if you use sh/bash/ksh/...:
export PATH=${HOME}/local/bin:/other/stuff
export MANPATH=${HOME}/local/man:/other/stuff
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/other/stuff:${HOME}/local/lib
there might be some errors in above but I guess you get the idea...
