Hi folks,

with the standard Julia installation (from [julialiang.org](http://julialiang.org)), I can set JULIA\_DEPOT\_PATH in the environment, the REPL picks it up and puts it in DEPOT\_PATH and packages are installed/compiled to the right place. With JuliaPro, it seems to be prepending “~/.juliapro” to DEPOT\_PATH when launching the REPL, with my path always coming second. I was wondering what the proper way is to override this? Thanks,

Dara
