Commands to change global Solc --version do not work on Arch Linux #72

Closed daweth closed 2 years ago

daweth commented 3 years ago

solc-select use 0.7.6 and SOLC_VERSION=0.7.6

do not change the result of

solc --version

0xicingdeath commented 3 years ago

Hey @daweth, this usually happens if you have another version of solc installed on your machine. Can you share the output of which solc?

daweth commented 3 years ago

/home/me/.nix-profile/bin/solc

Ah, seems like I have this from Nix (dapptools maybe?)

How would I change to a different solc directory?

arcz commented 3 years ago

@daweth what does your $PATH look like? If you used system Python to install solc-select then most probably ~/.nix-profile/bin/ takes precedence over the Python executables path. I don't know what do you want to achieve but if you have Nix installed already you can try solc-select in nix-shell with nix-shell -p python3Packages.solc-select.

Hey @daweth, we're closing this issue as @arcz provided fixes for the Python path. Please reopen or create a new issue if you experience this again. Thanks!
