After installing sumo-0.32.0 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, I noticed that SUMO folder doesn't contain a bin directory!

The SUMO folder I checked is in the path: /usr/share/sumo Is this the right sumo home directory, and how to set its environment variable step by step?

I installed sumo as indicated by its web page using the following three commands: 

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sumo/stable 
sudo apt-get update 
sudo apt-get install sumo sumo-tools sumo-doc

Did you install ´sumo´ ? → `cd sumo-0.32.0/ && sudo make install` ... or are you using sumo from the build location ? – Knud Larsen Jun 11 '18 at 20:45

  • I installed sumo as indicated by its web page using the following three commands: { sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sumo/stable sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install sumo sumo-tools sumo-doc } And when I got the warning, I tried to set the var permanently and appended this path: /usr/share/sumo the file etc/environment, but the same warning persist! I noticed that the SUMO folder in this path doesn't contain a bin folder and contains tools folder only! – Ahmedou Jreivine Jun 12 '18 at 20:37
  • Have you [reloaded /etc/environment](https://superuser.com/q/339617/84807) after editing (reboot or re-login)? I think the environment variable, if needed by the application, should be set while installing SUMO using APT automatically, consider contacting the [developers of the SUMO package](https://bugs.launchpad.net/~sumo). – Melebius Jun 13 '18 at 07:51
