Can I update permanently $PATH?
I'm trying to install some python apps using pip (downloaded using the get-pip.py script, runs perfectly), but I have to update manually the $PATH variable every session I run in kterm (a lot), which is more of a pain than I've previously anticipated. I've searched for a /root folder (doesn't exist), looked in /home (only a yocto folder, probably related to the Yocto Project (they build embedded linux) with a gazillion subfolders (got tired after the 4th~5th)) and looked in /etc for something similar to a .bashrc or .ashrc and found nothing.
As the python for kindle installer updates the path (python is available from whatever folder in kterm can't think of other reason), there must be a way to update the path (tried inspecting the install.sh script, found nothing). What kind of black magic is this and how can I obtain this forbidden knowledge? Is is because of the mrpi? |

I don't quite remember how the stock ash is built, but I suspect a ~/.ashrc would work... the caveat being that $HOME is on a tmpfs, IIRC ;p. Barring that, /etc/profile probably works, but I suspect the stock OS might be using that, in which case modifying it would perhaps be ill advised ![]() If you've got USBNet installed, and you can tell kterm to switch to ZSH, all the configs are hosted in the userstore, so you can safely tweak the zshenv (in usbnet/etc/zsh, IIRC). |
