SVG

If I do changes on SVG file placed in ~/blender-build/blender/release/datafiles, save it and run make icons command, it ends with

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'blender': 'blender' make: *** [icons] Error 1

Wiki has a note (the last one on page) which I don't understand: "... both inkscape and blender must be in the system PATH for this command to execute properly."

• What is that "system PATH"?

• How can I recognise I have them right?

PATH

Unix use a list of "PATH". By default it looks like this

echo $PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin

My looks like this now

echo $PATH /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/X11/bin

I tried to add PATH to blender with

export PATH=$PATH:/Applications/Blender/blender.app/Contents/MacOS

but on echo it seems it's not on the list. I understood the goal is to be able execute app simply by typing blender or inkscape via command line, that can be done also with creating alias

echo "alias blender=/Applications/Blender/blender.app/Contents/MacOS/blender" >> ~/.profile

but it didn't help either. So I don't know if this is even right direction to solve the issue with generating new icons.

BUILD

Probably good to mentioned I can't also build blender just by simple

cd ~/blender-build/blender make

as recommended on wiki. It result with

Configuring Blender in "/Users/filip/blender-build/build_darwin" ... /bin/sh: cmake: command not found make: *** [all] Error 127

so probably it relate somehow?
