(IRIX, zsh 3.1.6) failed to load module: comp1

[Roland Jesse]

Hi,

I just checked whether or not zsh 3.1.6 might work on a subset of our SGI
workstations. It compiled fine using the sgi compiler on an Irix 5.3 and
an 6.4 machine. Testing it always results in:

jesse.irix-6.4-machine > Src/zsh
zsh: failed to load module: comp1
irix-6.4-machine%

jesse.irix-5.3-machine > Src/zsh
zsh: failed to load module: comp1
irix-5.3-machine%

The configure flags were --enable-dynamic --enable-zsh-mem 
--enable-etcdir=/usr/local/etc.

Is that known behavior?

	Roland

You must either "configure --disable-dynamic", or else "make install" in
order for zsh to find the dynamically-loaded modules.  Or you can put

    module_path=($module_path ./Src/Builtins ./Src/Modules ./Src/Zle)

somewhere in your startup files temporarily -- but the only place where
it'll work for "Src/zsh -f" is in /etc/zshenv.  Be sure to remove that
line again once you've done "make install".

"make install.modules" is sufficient.  A full install would effectively
replace any existing zsh installation, which you want to avoid when
trying out a new zsh before installation.
