Hi Steve,

thanks for following up on this. I moved to a new machine and indeed the
modules are now present. emodule-path lists ("/usr/lib/geomview")
as you say. So you are right, something was messing up my old
environment.

Thank you for maintaining geomview for debian and keeping
it in good shape!
