Sorry for dropping the ball on this one. The whole discussion just came up on fedora devel again, so I figured I really should merge this now. I hence pinged Allison about this, one of the original spec authors, and she suggested we should not define any new env vars but simply document the dir as ~/.local/bin. That made sense to me, and I have taken the liberty to change your patches accordingly now, and dropped all references to any new env var, I hope that's OK. I have however added a reference to UNIX $PATH, and added that distros really should add ~/.local/bin to that path. I have then posted the updated patch set here: https://bugzilla.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106360 PTAL! Maybe we'll get some more feedback if this is tracked in bugzilla too. If not, I'll merge this like this in a day or two, but maybe Allison beats me to it. Anyway, sorry again for all the delays, let's get this settled, finally!
