ROOTPATH description in Env.d Document is incorrectly worded. Located in the first Variable/Function block Currently it states: "This variable is like the one above, but it sets the default root for programs for root. An example of this would be something like ROOTPATH=/usr/local/bin:/opt/bin." Note the first sentence at the end. "sets the default *root* for programs for root". I have put astericks above around the problem word, "root". this should read: "sets the default path for programs for root." OR preferably: "sets the default Path for programs ran as root." And the corrected entry in its entirety: "This variable is like the one above, but it sets the default Path for programs ran as root. An example of this would be something like ROOTPATH=/usr/local/bin:/opt/bin." Very minor change, but will do lots for readability and coherence. Thanks! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to Env.d Guide and look at the first Variable/Function block for ROOTPATH 2. ? 3. Profit? (sorry had to do it) ;-) Actual Results: n/a Expected Results: Explained fully in Details section n/a
Okay, thanks. The sentence was indeed flawed. I've corrected it by describing ROOTPATH as the variable that sets the PATH for the root user (which is the most accurate I believe). The new documentation on the environment variables (in the handbook) doesn't suffer from this though.
