Messed my path to python up I think...

Hiya folks,

Yep, it's me again with another adventure.

This time I tried to install 'gajim' from SBo. It had quite a few dependencies, and several of the dependencies had more dependencies. That in itself is fine with me. The problem arose when one of the dependencies says you need to do something to make that dependencie the python 'builder' for the package of gajim.

What it had me do was this:

Code:export PYTHONPATH=/opt/python3.9/site-packages/ That was great as I could see in several of the dependencies that needed that, were using it.

Then I got to needing the dependency of protobuf3 and for some reason it didn't build with this python thing. After several other dependencies also died from the exact same error codes, I decided to just give up on gajim.

What I need to know, is what command do I need to do to get my system to go back to using the stock path to python. Anyone happen to know it off the top of their head, please? I'm sure it'll be something similar to the above export, I just don't know where it points to or if it's for python3 or what.
