Setting the same path for ordinary users as for root sounds like
something only a fool would do, so I don't think there's a foolproof
way to do it.

I'm trying not to be a fool--that's why I'm checking with the Debian community.

I'm sure I was too casual in my comments. I want all users, including root, to have the Raku executables in their PATH, nothing else would be changed from current use.

When I get the path-setting portion of my program ready, I will show the pertinent parts here along with a link to the complete code.

Note I will ensure any file modified will have its current state backed up prior to changing it.

Cheers!
