- noname120 7y agoThey could have used another mechanism than PATH.
- vetinari 7y agobash does exactly that - it has command_not_found_handle function and distributions define it, so they can offer package installation for any command not found.
- vbezhenar 7y agoIMO installer should check existing PATH and warn user that this installation will change his python executable.
