direnv-edit doesn't work.

[ghost]

direnv-mode works ok.
I can enabled and disabled it by direnv-mode with no errors.
but when i try to add more environment variable with command direnv-edit, Emacs gives error:
error in process filter: comint-output-filter: Symbol's function definition is void: dirtrack-filter-out-pwd-prompt
error in process filter: Symbol's function definition is void: dirtrack-filter-out-pwd-prompt
direnv edit: exited abnormally with code 1.

And C-h f dirtrack-filter-out-pwd-prompt gives me nothing .
and I searched around for dirtrack-filter-out-pwd-prompt, and found a wiki which shows me how to custom define this function.
this is obviously neither what i want nor what I needed.
any suggestion i could solve this problem ?

not sure about the dirtrack stuff (that's not direnv), but in general direnv-edit has a few problems, so you'd be better off just editing .envrc, and running direnv allow (from a shell) afterwards.

Thanks for the quickly reply. guess I'm gonna give it up.
in fact , wht I need is just one environment variable PYTHONPATH.
and wht I do now to get it done is using .dir-locals.el file , and put content
((python-mode
(eval setenv "PYTHONPATH" "/path/to/project")))
in it.

finally set variable enable-local-eval to t --- which was told too danger.

I'm gonna waiting for you to make direnv-edit work as it suppose to be and quit that danger way , :).

just put it in .envrc and run direnv allow from a shell. emacs-direnv will pick it up!

i've completely removed the broken direnv-edit command in fc36cb9
