For package maintainers

  • There is a variable in the script called YTFZF_SYSTEM_ADDON_DIRS, if you want to package it so that addons are installed in a system path, make sure this variable points to the correct location.
    • Make sure to not point this to ~/.config/ytfzf/ as this is the user addons dir
    • You can either make it point to the correct location by either:
      • modifying the script
      • exporting it as an environment variable in a global startup file of some kind (eg: /etc/environment)
