  • Bug#1067785: pipx : modifies the wrong zsh init files.

    From Erwan David@21:1/5 to All on Tue Mar 26 20:10:01 2024
    Package: pipx
    Version: 1.4.3-1
    Severity: normal

    When you use zsh,
    pipx ensurepath adds

    export PATH="$PATH:/home/edavid/.local/bin"

    to both .zshrc and .zprofile, this could lead to a the directory being twice in the path, or not.

    With zsh the place to put it is ~/.zshenv

    Hi Erwan (2024.03.26_14:55:30_-0400)

    Thanks for the bug report.

    This sounds like an upstream bug in userpath.
    Would you mind filing it there? I'm not a zsh user, so I can't advocate
    for correct zsh configuration as well as you can.
