douane-dialog not in path, start with full path? #12

Citing from: https://github.com/Douane/Douane/wiki/Compilation Now you need to start it: douane-dialog & And you should probably see it quit immediately. ---- end of citation

But it isn't in my $PATH variable, it required full path: /opt/douane/bin/douane-dialog &

Maybe edit wiki? Or did I miss something again?

You're right. The make install is installing Douane in the /opt/ folder as I wanted to sell it (with the lower price) on the Ubuntu Software Center but I've failed to pass the USC checks (they hate kernel modules) so I will change that.

The long term solution will be to align with the standard which means installing Douane in the /usr folder. For a short term solution, please find bellow my suggestion in order to solve the issue:

  1. Open a pull request or
  2. Add /opt/douane/bin to your $PATH or
  3. Wait until I fix it :)

Or 4. you could just change line in wiki from douane-dialog & to: /opt/douane/bin/douane-dialog & ;-) My point is, when I first tried to copy-paste from wiki, it confused me, because it didn't work. I don't really care about installation paths, and I have no idea how to use pull requests.

:smile: OK !

I'm doing it now but keep this issue open in order to update anyway the place where Douane is installed.

zedtux commented 9 years ago

Done.
