Thanks for giving yabridge a shot!

[X] I read through both the troubleshooting and the known issues sections, and my issue wasn't listed there

Problem description

Warning: 'yabridge-host.exe' is not present in your login shell's search path. Yabridge won't be able to run using the copy-based installation method until this is fixed. Add '/usr/lib' to bash's login shell PATH environment variable. See the troubleshooting section of the readme for more details. Rerun this command to verify that the variable has been set correctly, and then reboot your system to complete the setup.

First of all, don't install anything to /usr/bin. That directory is owned by your package manager, and you should never ever modify any files yourself there. You didn't mention which distro you're using, so I'll assume you're using Ubuntu or Debian. Make sure you extracted the archive correctly. Run ls ~/.local/share/yabridge in a terminal, does that list all of yabridge's files (including yabridge-host.exe)?

It seems I placed the files in ~/.local/share/yabridge/yabridgectl/yabridge as per install instructions and that was the issue
