Still, the = result is the same.
As Thomas kindly noticed, there actually is no conf= igure script provided anywhere in the source code, so perhaps the Makefile = can be directly invoked, skipping the usual configure stage ?
In the meantime I'm = going to try the environment definition route as well.
Thanks for your help, really a= ppreciated !

Haha, I= see that I added bash because I misread the error and someone
mentioned bash was needed.

Bash is not needed. You can delete the input for bash both the use-module a= nd
the native-input bit. Be careful of matching parenthesis.
