[maker-devel] Maker can't find snap

If you are using ‘sudo’ to do the install you may be reseting the PATH environmental variable. Or snap was never in your PATH. The Build script searches the PATH to find the snap executable. Type ‘which snap’ on the command line to test.

I can use ./Build snap to compile Maker, then redirect it to my installed snap in the ctl files, but that seems like a workaround and I don't know if something is happening on the back end that this might be breaking.  Is there a way to point maker at my install during compile?
