Describe the bug
When havinging a module foo/1.0 and foo/variant/1.0 and setting the version divider at the first slash, I expect the following to work (LMOD_EXACT_MATCH=no):
ml foo/1
ml foo/variant/1
Line 1 worked up the 8.7.55 and breaks from 8.7.56 onwards (inlcuding the most recent version 8.7.64). Possibly related to the works of #740
$ ml foo/1
Lmod has detected the following error: The following module(s) are unknown: "foo/1"
Line 2 works for all versions 8.7.x
To Reproduce
# using 8.7.55
mkdir -p testing/foo/variant
touch testing/foo/1.0.lua testing/foo/variant/1.0.lua
touch testing/foo/.version
ml use testing
# works
ml foo/1
ml purge
# switch to 8.7.64
pushd $LMOD_ROOT
ln -snf 8.7.64 lmod
popd
# fails
ml foo/1
Expected behavior
No change of behaviour related to ml foo/1 when using v8.7.56 and above.
Desktop (please complete the following information):
- OS: Linux
- Linux distribution: Ubuntu 24.04
- Lmod Version: 8.7.55, 8.7.56, 8.7.64
