[arch-dev-public] [RFC] new default PATH
Hi guys, When updating our default PATH in /etc/profile due to the usrmerge I noticed it is not consistent with the system-wide PATH set by PID1. systemd sets: "/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin" which for us is equivalent to "/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin" but profile used to set: "/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin" which for us is equivalent to "/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin" For consistency I changed (in testing) the path set in /etc/profile to "/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin" Any objections?

No, this is definitely the right thing to do. Having /usr/local/sbin after /usr/bin wouldn't override binaries correctly.

I think we should eventually, but we are not doing it at the moment (and a few people object to it). My plan was to write an RFC for that once the current transition has finished. -t
