I must be missing something here: - $PATH looks fine - /usr/bin/as does not exist. - dpkg -S /usr/bin/as reports: "dpkg: /usr/bin/as not found" - dpkg -L binutils lists no executables, only doc, man and locale entries--see below. - I've installed/uninstalled, purged, removed and manually deleted and refetched the binutils...deb--all with the same result. Any help would be appreciated. dpkg -L binutils reports: /. /usr /usr/share /usr/share/doc /usr/share/doc/binutils /usr/share/doc/binutils/gas /usr/share/doc/binutils/gas/NEWS.gz /usr/share/doc/binutils/gas/ChangeLog.gz /usr/share/doc/binutils/gprof /usr/share/doc/binutils/gprof/TODO /usr/share/doc/binutils/gprof/ChangeLog.linux /usr/share/doc/binutils/gprof/TEST /usr/share/doc/binutils/gprof/bbconv.pl /usr/share/doc/binutils/gprof/ChangeLog.gz /usr/share/doc/binutils/ld /usr/share/doc/binutils/ld/NEWS.gz /usr/share/doc/binutils/ld/TODO /usr/share/doc/binutils/ld/ChangeLog.linux /usr/share/doc/binutils/ld/ChangeLog.gz /usr/share/doc/binutils/bfd /usr/share/doc/binutils/bfd/PORTING /usr/share/doc/binutils/bfd/TODO /usr/share/doc/binutils/bfd/ChangeLog.gz /usr/share/doc/binutils/bfd/ChangeLog.linux.gz /usr/share/doc/binutils/NEWS.gz /usr/share/doc/binutils/ChangeLog.linux /usr/share/doc/binutils/copyright /usr/share/doc/binutils/ChangeLog.gz /usr/share/doc/binutils/test-summary.gz /usr/share/doc/binutils/changelog.Debian.gz /usr/share/info /usr/share/man /usr/share/man/man1 /usr/share/man/man1/ar.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/dlltool.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/nlmconv.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/nm.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/objcopy.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/objdump.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/ranlib.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/readelf.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/size.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/strings.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/strip.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/windres.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/c++filt.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/as.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/ld.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/gasp.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/addr2line.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/gprof.1.gz /usr/share/locale /usr/share/locale/fr /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/bfd.mo /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/opcodes.mo /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo
