Hi @stephanstross

Thanks for the very detailed bug report! It looks as though Atom can't find the glslangValidator executable.

If you load atom from the terminal via the atom CLI command, simply adding /usr/local/bin to your PATH is enough.

Otherwise you need to specify the full path to glslangValidator in your config. You can do this by either:

1. Using the Atom preferences for the linter-glsl package to set glslangValidatorPath to /usr/local/bin/glslangValidator
2. Updating the linter-glsl section of your config to:

"linter-glsl":
    glslangValidatorPath: "/usr/local/bin/glslangValidator"

Let me know if that helps!

[stephanstross]

Nope. Same error :/ I've set the config option as you said, and the program is in there, but, no dice.

[andystanton]

Ok, what does the output of ls -la look like?

$ ls -la /usr/local/bin/glslangValidator

Perhaps glslangValidator isn't executable for your user.

It appears that it is not... One quick sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/glslangValidator later, and the output looks like this:

-rwxr-x--x 1 root root 3553816 Dec 24 22:06 /usr/local/bin/glslangValidator

and it looks like this! And, that being done, it seems to work now! No more error, and when I cause deliberate errors, it picks them up! Thanks for the help, and sorry about the late response.
