@pentatonicfunk could the pipx tool solve this?

could be. i think i tried with pipx, the install went okay but somehow shyaml isn't callable. i'll try to play around with it again soon

[pentatonicfunk]

so the problem with pipx, turns out about path-ing, by default it goes to user home bin

vagrant@vvv:~$ source ~/.bashrc
vagrant@vvv:~$ which shyaml
/home/vagrant/.local/bin/shyaml

there is --global parameter in their documentation, but somehow its not recognized in my test

vagrant@vvv:~$ sudo pipx ensurepath --global
usage: pipx [-h] [--quiet] [--verbose] [--version] {install,uninject,inject,upgrade,upgrade-all,uninstall,uninstall-all,reinstall,reinstall-all,list,run,runpip,ensurepath,environment,completions} ...
pipx: error: unrecognized arguments: --global

[pentatonicfunk]

right, so seems ubuntu repo has pipx in version 1.4.3 https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/noble/+package/pipx
meanwhile --global only added in 1.5.0 https://github.com/pypa/pipx/releases/tag/1.5.0

Launchpad

pipx : Noble (24.04) : Ubuntu

pipx allows you to... . * Run the latest version of a CLI application from a package in a temporary virtual environment, leaving your system untouched after it finishes. * Install packages to isolated virtual environments, while globally exposing their CLI applications so you can run them from anywhere. * Easily list, upgrade, and uninstall packages that were installed with pipx. . pipx runs with regular user permissions, never calling "sudo pip install".
