Where is zsh supposed to be?
Hi all I have a quick question. Is it better for my zsh shell to be in /usr/bin/zsh or /bin/zsh. I remember reading that one of them would mess up the whole system since zsh is not posix compliant. I believe that szh shouldn't be set as the root shell. I now have it in /usr/bin/zsh, is that good? So now when I drop into a root shell I don't get they autocompletion feature that zsh has. I'd also lose that fancy theme. Does that mean my root shell is still bash? Thanks
You're viewing a single thread.
One may just be a symlink to the other depending on your distro. For shebang lines, I'd probably go with
/bin/zshSo is the one you're suggesting not the root one? I'm running endeavourOS. Should I switch it to /bin/zsh?
typically I wouldn't recommend just moving file paths for packages, especially if you aren't sure what you're doing. assuming all you did was
chsh -s, I wouldn't worry about it.All I did was chsh -s /usr/bin/zsh
tbh I always go with env variables, usually $SHELL or $zsh are set
