Hello, I'm using ksh and I have in ~/.kshrc
LOCATE_PATH=$HOME/.locate.database:/var/db/locate.database (I'm not using export there to be consistent with /etc/ksh.kshrc) in ~/.profile I have export ENV=$HOME/.kshrc ksh is showing this variable in set command, but I have to export this variable manually to have it working $ set | grep LOCATE LOCATE_PATH=/home/navratil/.locate.database:/var/db/locate.database $ locate evMp6ma3xnk4IOJq6SGU $ export LOCATE_PATH=$HOME/.locate.database:/var/db/locate.database $ locate evMp6ma3xnk4IOJq6SGU /home/navratil/evMp6ma3xnk4IOJq6SGU Please advice, what I have to adjust to have locate working with LOCATE_PATH without manually exporting it.
