 Posted: Tue Oct 23, 2007 7:22 am Post subject: Oopo,README.txt in Toolchain.sh script should Look Like THIS |
 |
|
Readme.txt says:
| Code: | Add the following to your login script:
export PSPDEV=/usr/local/pspdev
export PATH=$PATH:$PSPDEV/bin
|
but that doesn't seem to work :<
This does:
| Quote: | export PSPDEV=/usr/local/pspdev
export PATH=$PSPDEV/bin:$PATH
|
I ran the toolchain 4 times & 006 script 3 times more before finding this out! Hope this fix helps some one else.
--------
If any of things donot work, Cygwin users try this:
| Code: | cd / && printf 'export PATH="/usr/local/pspdev/bin:$PATH"' >> /etc/profile

I suspect there's something conflicting in your path. Shuffling the order around only masks the problem instead of solving it.
Standard practice is to add custom paths at the end of $PATH, so as to not override system policy. It is a terrible security risk to put a user writable directory so early in your path. For example, someone could easily put a modified 'ls' in there that gains access to your account.
Technically, the proper fix for the readme would be to add a line stating that Cygwin is terrible and should never be used, but people get cranky when I start talking like that. So I don't. |

I had a similar problem when I had a path with a whitespace in my windows path variable. Might be a solution to take out all paths with whitespaces. Oopo is right - Cygwin is a horrible thing to use, but it's still better than having no *nix environment on your windows machine.

If it's a whitepsace issue, you can try quoting it:
| Code: | | export PATH="$PATH:$PSPDEV/bin" |
