Automatic default and latest symbolic versions
timestamp1586245140001
v4.5
new feature
When the implicit default mechanism and the advanced module version specifiers are both enabled, a default
and a latest
symbolic versions are automatically defined for each module name.
This new feature gives the ability to select the highest version available for a module, without knowing beforehand this version name:
$ module load -v foo@latest
Loading foo/1.10
The symbolic versions are automatically defined unless a symbolic version, an alias or a regular module version already exists for these default
or latest
version names.
