I am fuming about this as well (for bash). The culprit is a script /usr/libexec/path_helper that is called from /etc/profile (for bash). This sort of reads from /etc/paths and /etc/paths.d/*. The irony is that it forces /usr/local to the last position ... I resorted to removing the call to path_helper as my /etc/bashrc then does what it should. In case you're using screen+xterm+X11 you're in for a few surprises as well :-( c -- \black\trash movie _C O W B O Y_ _C A N O E_ _C O M A_ Ein deutscher Western/A German Western -->> http://www.blacktrash.org/underdogma/ccc.html -->> http://www.blacktrash.org/underdogma/ccc-en.html _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
