Summary	0005949: /snap/bin is not added to path
Description	In order to run snaps, `/snap/bin` needs to be added to the path. `/etc/profile.d/apps-bin-path.sh` adds `/snap/bin` to the path, but this isn't sourced at login (probably because it only applies to bourne shell?).
Steps To Reproduce	`apt install snapd systemctl enable snapd systemctl start snapd systemctl enable apparmor systemctl start apparmor` logout and log back in `$ snap install hello-world hello-world 6.3 from Canonical✓ installed $ hello-world bash: hello-world: command not found` The expected behavior is that hello-world is found (`/snap/bin/hello-world`)

rhertzog 2019-12-26 10:46 administrator ~0011761	Is this problem really specific to Kali? It seems rather unlikely. We are not modifying anything compared to to Debian. Maybe you should reconfigure your terminal to start login shells? Because /etc/profile is only executed for login shells. In any case, we will not investigate this issue in Kali, so please report this directly to Debian. See https://kali.training/topic/filing-a-good-bug-report/ 6.3.3.2. Filing a Bug Report in Debian We won't fork our package for this.
