/opt/..../bin.... Is Dominating Over Other Bin's ?
« on: May 19, 2007, 09:03:57 am »
i have the gcc-headers package install and its location in my $PATH, is this put in here by the machine or would i have at some stage ??

as it is second in list in $PATH, and is dominating over the newer versions that are installed in /usr/local both from the cli and when running./configure... such as libgnutls-config libgcrypt-config

how can i take it out ?? or otherwise fix this so the latest ones are used...

the order of $PATH (as stored in /etc/profile) is in order of priority/preference... thank googness for scroogle.org

so put the /opt/.. last and its all sweetness and cupscakes again ...
