Hello,
I’m a little confused about chocolatey.exe+OneGet+WMF5 implementation. Mainly my confusion stems where applications are installed to and how they can be launched once installed. I used both Chocolatey and OneGet to install package “Conemu”. Chocolatey installed it under ProgramData and added that path to PATH environment variable so it’s easily discoverable.
On the other hand OneGet put it under c:\chocolatey\lib\ConEmu.16.6.5.0 which is not in PATH variable and not only that since it appended version number to the name even if I update my PATH variable it will be outdated next time update is run.
Am I missing something or how OneGet supposed to work in such situations?
