Stéphane Wirtel <[email protected]> added the comment:
It's normal, when you execute a command, there is a fork/exec, fork for the new
process, and the exec will replace the memory of the previous process by the
new process.
in os.system, you use ('export MYENVPATH=/usr/bin/gcc') but this variable only
exists for the $SHELL process, once this one is finished, the variable is just
destroyed.
You have to pass all the env variables when you call your process, read the doc
of subprocess.Popen, there is a env variable, you have to pass the value to
this parameter
