clone-path fails to update $PATH

[Darcness]

Windows version (build number):
Version 20H2 OS Build 19042.1165

Linux distribution:
Ubuntu-20.04

Genie version:
1.44

Describe the bug
genie -s does not clone my path, despite clone-path set to true

Confirm that you are running inside the bottle:
inside

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Set 'Command line' in Windows Terminal to wsl.exe genie -s
2. Open the terminal
3. echo $PATH
4. See directories from 'secure-path' in '/etc/genie.ini', and a few paths specified in .bashrc, but none of my Windows paths.

Expected behavior
See a full list of directories, including Windows paths.

Screenshots

Additional context
/run/genie.path is populated correctly, as in, I see my full Windows Path as well as other paths I would normally expect to see in my WSL Distro.

I confirm that I have read the ENTIRE supplied readme file and checked for relevant information on the repository wiki before raising this issue, and that if the solution to this issue is found in either location, it will be closed without further comment:

• Yes.

I was able to drop the following into my .bashrc as a workaround:

if [ -f /run/genie.path ]; then
    export PATH=$PATH:$(cat /run/genie.path)
fi

This is probably a variant of #137 . Try the diagnosis/fix described here? #137 (comment)

[daegalus]

Im having the same problem, and the #137 solution didnt help.

Adn this is my path outside of genie:

Same with Ubuntu-21.04. But in my case #201 (comment) solves the issue. I adapted it slightly to my usecase

# This is a temporary hack until the following bug is fixed:
# https://github.com/arkane-systems/genie/issues/201
if \
    [[ -v INSIDE_GENIE ]] \
    && cat /etc/genie.ini | grep --quiet '^clone-path=true' \
    && ! echo "$PATH" | grep --quiet '/WINDOWS/system32' \
    && [ -f /run/genie.path ]
then
    echo "[DEBUG] Add content of '/run/genie.path' to PATH."
    PATH="$PATH:$(cat /run/genie.path)"
fi

What do you see if you run /usr/lib/systemd/system-environment-generators/80-genie-envar.sh manually?

[daegalus]

Weirdly my path in the bottle is incorrect, but both the 80-genie-envvar.sh and /run/genie.path are correct, mostly. the Genie one ones are missing snap/bin which i dont care but its weird its not including certain things. though, that just might be another generator that runs elsewhere

Followed the above for checking if /run/genie.path exists, but had to save my original path to a file before restoring. Otherwise things like code do not work. This was on Fedora 35.
