Clarification needed: [which curl returns different path] #17

Closed luisdrg closed 2 years ago

luisdrg commented 2 years ago

For COMP-421 I am required to install Anaconda with Python, so now when I enter which curl on my terminal I get /Users/luisrivera/opt/anaconda3/bin/curl instead of /usr/bin/curl

Is it okay to leave it like that?

It shouldn't cause a conflict. It's just curl at a different path. But what version of curl is it? That is really the only thing that might be of concern for you. Like you might want to know if the versions of curl match or not. You can always run a program from its full path, so if you need the system curl installed in /usr/bin instead of the one installed in your user opt directory, you can just run it with /usr/bin/curl.
