I'm trying to enable the EMBOSS tools, and Galaxy is complaining it can't find the executables. Our local installation of EMBOSS is in a non-standard location (/usr/local/emboss/bin). I tried setting the $PATH variable in ~/.bashrc_profile and ~/.profile, but this had no effect. Where can I add the path to the EMBOSS tools so that Galaxy can find them?

I set ours directly in run.sh. Make sure you use 'export' so it alters subprocesses too.
