[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #31695] Order of users "PATH" not respected from within ./run-octave

[Olaf Till]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #31695 (project octave):

Yes, with stable d049192e5d15 (2011-09-11) Octaves paths are appended to the
users paths, not prepended. With default branch its the same with e205ebe2ba67
(2011-05-02); recent changeset currently does not compile for me, but if you
already checked it, it should be the same, too ...

For the record:

Due to the attack to Savannah last year, the following follow-up from Nov 25th
2010 had been lost and was never restored, though I reported the loss:

Follow-up Comment #3:

I checked in the following changeset:

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/e2a4f3478b7c

The change was intentional, but accidentally checked in as part of another
bug fix for datetick.  The ChangeLog entry is in a separate changeset:

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/2bbea68c8abc


================== end of lost entry =======================



But later (26th Nov. 2011) jwe made the change:

 http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/4ecc7bc5bc83


Thomas Webers comment came after this and indicated that Octaves paths were
prepended to PATH (in Octave-3.4, but no exact changeset number was given),
but currently, as said above, they are appended.
