@lexming Will this be fixed in:

• adopt module_load_environment in generic Rpm easyblock  #3561

   File "/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.6.15/x64/lib/python3.6/site-packages/easybuild/framework/easyblock.py", line 1670, in make_module_req
    self.module_load_environment.update(self.make_module_req_guess())
  File "/home/runner/work/easybuild-easyblocks/easybuild-easyblocks/easybuild/easyblocks/generic/rpm.py", line 242, in make_module_req_guess
    'PATH': guesses.get('PATH', []) + ['usr/bin', 'sbin', 'usr/sbin'],
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'ModuleEnvironmentVariable' and 'list'

@boegel yes, it is fixed in that PR. I didn't add support to do something like the following, but it's something we can consider

self.module_load_environment.PATH + ['usr/bin', 'sbin', 'usr/sbin']
