unrecognized wordnet snap installation in manjaro 3.36.2 #11

Hope you can help me to make synosaurus work under manjaro

the snap installation places wordnet as wordnet2 at "/var/lib/snapd/snap/bin/". I added this path to the system and also to my init.el file i.e. (add-to-list 'load-path "/var/lib/snapd/snap/bin/") but it didn't help to start synosaurus. Wordnet worked from the terminal though.

since synosaurus searches for a wn file or folder I modified the synosaurus-wordnet.el accordingly to search for wordnet2, to no avail. I also changed synosaurus-backend frm emacs' customization menu but it did not like wordnet2

You need to modify the PATH environment variable, not load-path.
