Sorry, the bit I missed (I keep doing this) is that I'm trying to script it
with commands to be pushed from the host.
All of the Go install instructions require the setting up of environment
variables something like this:
echo 'export GOROOT=$HOME/go' >> .profile
echo 'export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin
This is more a shell question than anything particular to LXD. Just
prepend the variable you want to the beginning of your command:
GOPATH=/some/path/here apt install some_software
for something more permanent, edit the default path variable IN the
container, probably /etc/login.defs - you didn't
Hi,
I'm trying to install golang in a container, I can push an "apt install"
command to make that work, but then when I try and run stuff I get an error
about environment variables "$GOPATH not set".
It looks like there's some support for setting them in LXD, but I can't
work out how to do it, or
