python shebang: should it use env? #32

Open caio96 opened 5 years ago

caio96 commented 5 years ago

System: Manjaro xfce. I'm a user of anaconda, so when a run /usr/bin/pulseaudio-equalizer-gtk it tries to use anaconda's python and it fails because it doesn't have the correct dependencies installed.

Changing #!/usr/bin/env python3 for #!/usr/bin/python3 did the trick.

It should translate to a change in bin/pulseaudio-equalizer-gtk.in: #!/usr/bin/env python@python_major_ver@ for #!/usr/bin/python@python_major_ver@

I don't know if there is any need to use env but this is my suggestion.

Doing this would hardcode thus breaking compatibility with virtual environments. It looks to me like your python/anaconda environment is wrongly setup. From the AUR package I see that probably you need to run source /opt/anaconda/bin/deactivate root before running the equalizer. Perhaps you have added anaconda to the environment variables? If so, that's wrong, you should use a virtual environment instead.
