I noticed an anomaly with how my PATH
is being configured on a new install of 22.04. Initially ~/.local/bin
appeared twice. I reduced it to one time by commenting out the relevant block in ~/.profile
. However, now I can't tell why/where/how ~/.local/bin
gets onto the the path in the first place -- it's not set in the default path, it's not set in .profile
and it's not set in .bashrc
. So what/how is ~/.local/bin
getting on my PATH
?
dave@local $ echo $PATH/home/dave/.local/bin:/home/dave/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/snap/bin
.profile

There are no other bash config files:
dave@local $ ls .bash*.bash_completion .bash_history .bash_logout .bashrc
The default path seems normal:
dave@local $ cat /etc/environmentPATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin"
