Executables of dependencies not added to the program's $PATH #1693

Description

@adbenitez

I have some programs that depend on the executable of its dependencies

when running them with pipx they can't find the executables of its dependencies, when I look at ~/.local/share/pipx/venvs/PROGRAM/bin I see that all the executables of the dependencies are already there!, it is just that pipx is not setting up things properly so that when running the program executable the ~/.local/share/pipx/venvs/PROGRAM/bin folder is also in $PATH

using --include-deps or manually installing the dependency with pipx is not an option because then the executable is global/shared across all installed programs which might require different versions of the program, besides it is inefficient since the executables/dependencies are already installed just not properly added to the $PATH of the environment when the program is executed
