The XDG spec found here: http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html makes no reference of ~/.local/bin (or any other directories under ~/.local). IMHO adding directories to the default path should get a little more discussion than a single BZ request (and probably shouldn't be changed mid-release without notice). -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
