I wanted to set / update environment variables which would be available even after my install. For example, I want to update the PATH with my application's install area
I saw that while doing the install, when I do an export in %post and did an echo on it , it printed the value, but once the install is done, I am unable to view it in my system's environment.
Thanks
Lakshmi
