/home/runner/.local/bin missing from PATH

[bgilbert]

In the ubuntu-24.04 image, $PATH is:

/snap/bin:/home/runner/.local/bin:/opt/pipx_bin:/home/runner/.cargo/bin:/home/runner/.config/composer/vendor/bin:/usr/local/.ghcup/bin:/home/runner/.dotnet/tools:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin

But in ubuntu-24.04-arm, it is:

/snap/bin:/home/runneradmin/.local/bin:/opt/pipx_bin:/home/runneradmin/.cargo/bin:/home/runneradmin/.config/composer/vendor/bin:/home/runneradmin/.dotnet/tools:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin

pip install (without sudo) installs programs into /home/runner/.local/bin, not /home/runneradmin/.local/bin. Therefore, on ARM only, subsequent workflow steps cannot run programs installed by pip.

The same goes for multiple other paths, such as /home/runneradmin/.local/bin instead of /home/runner/.local/bin, which causes various programs (such as linuxdeploy) to fail, as it tries to inspect those directories (but does not have filesystem permissions to do so).

This relates to #27 too.

Just noting, the works-for-me™ workaround I use is:

  - run: sed -Ee 's/^/PATH=/' -e 's/(runner)admin/\1/g' <<< "${PATH}" | tee -a "$GITHUB_ENV"

This literally just strips the admin from all instances of runneradmin in the $PATH variable.
