export vars for python setup.py install --prefix

When I install a python package with prefix

python setup.py install --prefix=$HOME/opt

In ~/.bashrc, I modify the PATH environment var.

export PATH=$HOME/opt:$PATH

Are there any other environment variables that I need to modify?

Solution

  • You may need to modify PYTHONPATH.
