[22:15:19] <sudocurse> hey i know this isn't a pyenv channel but does anyone know why pyenv's install steps say to add $PYENV_ROOT/bin to path when that directory doesn't exist?

[22:17:03] <sudocurse> (it instructs you to set PYENV_ROOT to ~/.pyenv)

[22:17:38] <dude-x> sudocurse did you check the directory with ls -a?

[22:18:03] <sudocurse> yeah, the directories pyenv creates are shims versions

[22:18:29] <dude-x> you don't have to do anything pyenv suggests.

[22:18:32] <sudocurse> lol

[22:18:36] <sudocurse> the bin directory only exists in the individual version directories

[22:18:41] <sudocurse> seems uh

[22:18:41] <sudocurse> wrong

[22:19:00] <dude-x> pyenv has copies of python versions

[22:19:05] <dude-x> i think shims is just a symlink

[22:19:13] <sudocurse> yeah

[22:21:23] <dstufft> sudocurse: did you run pyenv rehash

[22:22:09] <dstufft> shims are not just symlinks, they're bash scripts to support shit like PYTHON_VERSION

[22:22:27] <sudocurse> oh that helped, i was looking into this because my /usr/local/bin symlinks are messed up

[22:22:49] <sudocurse> thanks

[22:23:12] <sudocurse> still confused about why /Users/ankeet/.pyenv/bin is in my path

[22:23:23] <sudocurse> maybe someone just forgot to take it out of the readme

[22:23:32] <sudocurse> s/someone/everyone
