After I sent the message copied below I realized the subject was
misleading and what I think would really help is if someone could tell me
how to capture the error messages when I'm in the Xwindows environment and
I try to start an xterm and nothing happens. Where does the console output
go?

Subject: Re: "." appears by default in PATH (was Re: Scripts...)

After using your good advice to fix that path problem with the errata, I
downloaded all the other errata which I thought I might use in the near
future. I rpm -Uvh each package. The only one which hasn't worked yet
is procps and procps-X11 which need libproc.so.1.2 and
libproc.so.1.2.6 respectively. 

These upgrades had the unintended effect of not allowing me any xterms.
I can startx and I get my root window and pager and Netscape even works
but no xterms! This is a very bad situation. I can't do much this way. 

The offending package must be in this list because the xterms worked
before the upgrades.

apache-1.2.5-1
dump-0.3-11
elm-2.4.25-11
gtk-0.99.970925-3
imap-4.1.BETA-9imap-4.1.BETA-9

Sorry about the long list. I have strong doubts that most of these are
related but I thought someone with more experience could tell me exactly
which one is causing the problem.
