ack command isn't added to bin_wrappers #324

Closed hodapp512 closed 1 year ago

hodapp512 commented 1 year ago

I try according to the instructions:

export PATH="$PATH:~/.junest/usr/bin_wrappers"
sudoj pacman -S ack
ack

I get:

The program 'ack' is currently not installed. To run 'ack' please ask your administrator to install the package 'ack-grep'

But it doesn't look like the bin_wrapper for the command is ever generated.

The wrapper mechanism look at the executables located into /usr/bin only. ack is located into a directory inside the bin. One possible solution is to gather all directories in PATH when such variable is initiated during a Junest session.

For bin paths different from /usr/bin they can be created manually: https://github.com/fsquillace/junest/pull/326
