girok installs successfully but won't run due to not being on PATH

[carrierg]

Bug Description

I'm running Fedora 39: Linux [hostname] 6.7.6-200.fc39.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Feb 23 18:27:29 UTC 2024 x86_64 GNU/Linux. Python version is 3.12.2.

Upon executing pip install girok I get the following output, with a warning at the end:

Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable

Successfully installed girok-0.2.5

The interesting thing is when I experiment to see if girok really has successfully installed by cd'ing to ~/.local/bin and running girok --help, I get this: zsh: girok: command not found...

So I guess I have a couple of questions:

1. Is the installation script expected to not install girok on PATH? I can certainly add it to PATH if needed, but am curious if this is expected behaviour or a bug before I add it to PATH.
2. Will adding girok to PATH resolve zsh's claim that the girok command can't be found?

Many thanks.
