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.

the error’s from bash itself. it caches paths of executables you’ve run recently. do a “hash locate” to force it to forget the old path.
