pkg_config_path export
 

I was hoping someone could tell me where environment variables are normally setup when logging in. For some reason, my pkg_config_path never gets set, and I have to export it every time I compile something. Where can I stick this line so that it's automatically assigned to my environment? (btw, i know the variables should be in all caps, I just don't like using caps because it looks like I'm yelling). Thanks for the help.

as root, set them....ie (command) HOSTNAME=funfunfun.linux
....then

(command) export HOSTNAME

it will send it to all ~

Re: pkg_config_path export
 

I think you should edit this file : /etc/profile.env
Here's where your environment variables are loaded ..

Hope this helps,

set it


as root# go to bash# env

make sure its the the right path, if so

bash# export path

if not,
bash# PATH=.../sbin/whatever~

then

bash# export PATH
