quick installation script overwrites .bash_profile without asking #17

The following "quick installation" command overwrote my .bash_profile. This is not an appropriate thing to do without asking.

curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MGEScan/mgescan/master/one-liner/ubuntu | bash

Hi cooketho,

If you look at the script, there are two command lines to update your .bash_profile (line 25, 34). It does not overwrite, it adds source commands to activate mgescan everytime when you open a new ssh terminal. You may find double right angle brackets >> in the script which tell you to append in the original file. You can open the file with an editor e.g. nano or vim to remove the new commands added to your profile.

There is the installation guide, which instructs you step-by-step to install required software and configure environment variables including your .bash_profile.

Sorry for the late response. If you have any further questions, please let me know.

Thank you, Hyungro
