How to set PATH for Dolphin servicemenu
Hi. I use Dolphin filemanager on a gnome-session on wayland - Arch Linux. I've set the correct PATH on .bashrc, in fact from terminal my exec files work but not to from a .desktop file in servicemenu of Dolphin. How can i add the correct PATH on Dolphin? Regards.
Re: How to set PATH for Dolphin servicemenu
It still doesn't work...again After reboot... Is wayland, Dolphin or what the issue?!?

Re: How to set PATH for Dolphin servicemenu
Yes... a full Path for the exec in the .desktop works, but too complicate for maintenance.

Re: How to set PATH for Dolphin servicemenu
Anyway... Is not possibile to define a parameter $PATH directly in the . desktop file? e.g. : PATH=`~/bin exec=$PATH/command I tried as above but that syntax doesn't work.

Re: How to set PATH for Dolphin servicemenu
Below my ~/.profile. --- # Append our default paths #append_path '~/usr/bin' #append_path '~/usr/tools/Root_Actions' #append_path '~/usr/tools/PDF' # Force PATH to be environment #export PATH #export PATH="$PATH:$(du -L ~/usr/bin/ | cut -f2 | tr '\n' ':' | sed 's/:*$//')" export PATH="$PATH:/home/andrea/usr/tools/Root_Actions - Help me to use the correct way. P.S. The commented line before the last one is what I have in .bashrc where work properly, but just for the shell.

So, it's, interesting: actually, I just realized that both /etc/environment and /etc/profile as well as ~/.profile are all read by shells. I never thought about that. So, if you modified your ~/.profile file, I would presume it should work (I never tried though, just judging by what I just read on the topic), however I think you need to restart DE (that is, log out and log back in) for these changes to start working. That is because your DE would need to get launched with these env. variables, and then it would launch ".desktop" file apps using the environment it got.

When you launch an app from a desktop file, there's no bash involved (unless of course the Exec= call inside .desktop file calls bash explicitly). Use `/etc/profile` file instead, the $PATH is usually set there.
How to set a recursevly PATH under wayland.
Hi. I'd like a recursevly path for exec in .desktop files under wayland. As wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Environment_variables#Wayland_environment, i can add personal path in ~/.config/environment.d/envvars.conf. So, adding in that file PATH=$PATH:/home/myhome/my/PATH it works for that directory, but I need as PATH all subdirectory too. In .bashrc, for example, I solved just for the shell adding as below. export PATH="$PATH:$(du -L ~/usr/bin/ | cut -f2 | tr '\n' ':' | sed 's/:*$//')" Can I use something somilar for the wayland enviroment? Thanks.
Re: How to set a recursevly PATH under wayland.
I cannot understand I asked for Path in wayland enviroment which don't read those file for the Shell...
