There's one item I used to use in $PATH, which is ~/.workspace/bin. I can't figure out where it's coming from.
I changed the user shell to /bin/sh, logged in from TTY, checked $PATH, and it was clear of this item.
Then I changed the shell to /usr/bin/fish, I echoed $PATH as a first thing in ~/.config/fish/config.fish, and that item was there!
Where could it come from? What else is the fish shell doing on startup? (I have an empty ~/.profile file)
set -Uand see what variables are there. You might want to look forfish_user_paths-- fwiw this is why I don't use universal variables: I like configuration.grep PATH /etc -rIor eventuallygrep PATH / -rI
