The little red icon means you should have a trailing linefeed at the end of the file

NestedModules/RootModule are fields in a module manifest (.psd1) that reference other modules using string paths. Assuming that a module is written to be cross-platform, the same psd1 module manifest should be successfully imported on both Windows and Linux platforms.
The bug is that in some cases Import-Module on Linux fails for a totally valid module. It depends on format of NestedModules/RootModule paths.
The root of the problem is using simple Path.Combine for constructing a path to the submodule, that is then tested using NativeItemExists methods, resulting in calls like
Unix.NativeMethods.IsFile("/home/testuser/TestRootModule/.\SubModule\SubModule.psm1")which fails and Import-Module returns an error.
The fix is to resolve submodule paths using existing FileSystem provider utilities.
