Thanks for your feedback.
Well, /usr/local/bin is already in user's path. But since PATH is
define in /etc/profile, it ain't define when a subshell is started,
hence a run "echo $PATH" gives the default path :
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
I certainly miss something, but I doesn't know what. I'm on SuSE
Entreprise 64bits, but I've got the same issue on Mac OS X, Ubuntu or
Debian.
You are most welcome.
Usually you'd put your path extensions inside .bash_profile
or .bash_rc like so:
PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
Then, when you login next it should be sourced (or you can do
manually via "source ~/.bash_profile" for the current session) you
should see this:
> echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
( assuming that "echo $PATH" originally produces: /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/
sbin:/sbin )
In this example /usr/local/bin will be searched first, of course you
can set it last also by appending instead of prepending.
Let me know if this helps.
