Hi, From this stackoverflow thread: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/716011/why-cant-environmental-variables-set-in-python-persist I find out there is an abnormal environment variable setting affects by using shell command. Do you have some explanation for the shell command runs? For your information, if I run below commands: os.system("export MYENVPATH=/opt/toolchain/gcc") os.system("./configure O=output project_name debug initramfs nofirewall && make O=output") Then the configure command can't detect the MYENVPATH value.

I find out there is an abnormal environment variable setting affects by using shell command.
Do you have some explanation for the shell command runs?
For your information, if I run below commands:
os.system("export MYENVPATH=/opt/toolchain/gcc")
os.system("./configure O=output project_name debug initramfs nofirewall && make O=output")
Then the configure command can't detect the MYENVPATH value.
