Duplicate PLAT paths in PATH (both v3 and v4 showing up)

Page source

Source: Troubleshooting reference

Only relevant with DF_USE_PLAT=1. Fixed in current versions — .zprofile/.bash_profile resolve ~/.local symlinks before setting _LOCAL_PLAT so PATH entries use the same physical path.

If you upgraded from before that fix:

Terminal window
chezmoi apply ~/.zprofile ~/.bash_profile
exec zsh -l                                # or: exec bash -l
echo "$PATH" | tr ':' '\n' | grep plat     # all entries should share the same PLAT prefix

In flat mode (DF_USE_PLAT=0, the default), this failure mode doesn’t apply — there’s no $PLAT segment in $_LOCAL_PLAT.
