Dear Folk,
After doing a wipe -r on /usr/local and recompiling the GNU findutils
package to install under /usr, the command 'locate --version' returns a
peculiar failure;
(1): % locate --version
-bash: /usr/local/bin/locate: No such file or directory
But of course, it's correct, but 'whereis' reveals;
(5): % whereis locate
/usr/bin/locate
My PATH has no /usr/local anything in it now; I edited all that stuff out.
(6): % echo $PATH
/Users/jbb/bin:/opt/schily/bin:/opt/schily/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/opt/X11/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/etc:/usr/etc:/home/jbb/bin/ORIG/.../F1/A:.
So, what the H is going on?
Shalom,
John B. Brown.
