The default value of $PATH in my Termux shell is
$ echo $PATH | tr : '\n' /usr/games /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/bin /usr/sbin /sbin /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin /product/bin /apex/com.android.runtime/bin /apex/com.android.art/bin /system_ext/bin /system/bin /system/xbin /odm/bin /vendor/bin /vendor/xbinOne of these things is not like the others:
$ ls -l /system_ext/bin ls: cannot open directory '/system_ext/bin': Permission denied $ ls -ld /system_ext/bin drwxr-x--x. 3 root shell 4096 Jan 1 2009 /system_ext/binwhich causes programs that loop through all $PATH entries (e.g. pypa/virtualenv#2794).
Actually, three more of those directories are inaccessible:
$ ls /system/xbin /odm/bin /vendor/bin /vendor/xbin ls: cannot access '/system/xbin': No such file or directory ls: cannot access '/vendor/xbin': No such file or directory /odm/bin ls: cannot open directory '/vendor/bin': Permission deniedWhat steps will reproduce the bug?
Install Termux from the Google Play Store, launch it, look at $PATH.
What is the expected behavior?
PATH contains only directories that the Termux user (u0_a368, although I wonder if this varies per device) can actually access.
