Help, I have a path variable issue! - eviltoast

I’ve set some path variables on my Raspberry Pi, but since I upgraded the D compiler version, I need to change it, by removing the reference to the old version, as the two would collide with each other. The issue is, I used some now obscure tutorial, which I no longer can find, and it’s not found in the usual culprit /etc/profile, yet the path is still listed with an echo $PATH.

I need to get the list of bootup scripts where it was added (it was added with something like that if I remember correctly), or somehow reset it without reinstalling the Linux to my Pi. I’ll give my paths a more generic names in the future, so I can just rename a folder, then use the compiler right out of the box without having to mess around with the path yet again.

    Found it in .bashrc, editing it makes my pi no longer wanting to log in to GUI. Ctrl+Alt+F1 still works. Commenting out the export PATH part does not fix it. Some forums recommended deleting some files, so I’ll try doing that.

      UPDATE: Due to the nonexistent documentation for the issue, I had to reinstall the OS for my Raspberry Pi, and I really don’t like Wayland, nor the fact it forced the Hungarian Keyboard layout onto me (near unusable for programming, because at IBM, people wanted their menu key)…

        People are really still complaining about Wayland? I thought that was just a meme

          Issue is, a lot of applications still haven’t fully moved to Wayland, especially Barrier, which I use to share a keyboard and mouse from my Windows PC.
