Just noticed during my SNAP (beta 7.0) installation that when I force SNAP to use an already installed Python distribution on Linux, the application is not configured correctly. The SNAP installer finishes without errors, but when I try to run SNAP (both in a shell as well as through a regular shortcut), JRE starts but SNAP does not get initialized (even no fancy splash screen).
After uninstalling and skipping the Python path forcing when reinstalling, things work well.
I do not know what the specific source for this behavior is, but maybe good to be aware of.
Cheers, Jelte.
