I actually thought that the environment variables was always supposed to override, which is apparently not the case at the moment.
If this patch means that I can do, for example: rm ~/.config/kicad ; KISYS3DMOD=/tmp pcbnew And then I expect that the KISYS3DMOD is set to /tmp when used in kicad, saved in the config file and show in the configure paths dialog. 2015-12-04 7:49 GMT+01:00 Mark Roszko <[email protected]>: > The default paths were using DEFAULT_INSTALL_PATH which is horrible > because it'll never be right for our Windows builds.
