systemd's file-hierarchy manpage <https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/file-hierarchy.html> documents ~/.local/bin as the place under $HOME to install executables in $PATH, and quite a bit of software has adopted that. However, unlike the directories specified in the XDG Base Directory specification, this doesn't include an environment variable (like $XDG_DATA_HOME for ~/.local/share) to override it. I've seen a proposal to use $XDG_BIN_HOME for that. Might it make sense to include that, and start getting software to adopt it?
Also, would it make sense to add ~/.local/bin to the XDG Base Directory specification itself? I'd be happy to write up an addition to the spec for that, and propose it on the appropriate list. - Josh Triplett _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
