Within a GRASS session, the $GISBASE/bin and $GISBASE/scripts
directories should be present in $PATH, and $GISBASE/lib should be
present in $LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The startup script does this.

You shouldn't need to set anything outside of GRASS. The only
requirement is that the grass<version> script (e.g. grass61) must be
in one of the directories in $PATH, e.g. if it's installed as
/usr/local/bin/grass61, then $PATH must include /usr/local/bin.
