[lisaac-Bugs][312126] install lisaac fails: lisaac fails executing external command.

[Nicolas Boulay]

Maybe this could come from the fact to forget to source ~/.bashrc
after the install ? So the PATH is not updated, for a "user"
installation.

Nicolas

> In addition, the built-in function "run cmd:STRING :INTEGER" of LIP code seems not working (it don't execute the command given and return a non-zero value), so the function "add_lib" of the given make.lip return an error with any argument, for now I have removed the body.
