I see. I am a tcsh user myself, so I am familiar with its behavior. For
bash I have to make experiments. The latest experiment shows:
For tcsh, the script /sw/bin/init.csh always prepends the fink paths to
PATH. If they are already present in $PATH, they are removed first. This
is the behavior I would call "cleaning up the mess".
For bash, the script /sw/bin/init.sh only prepends the fink paths to
PATH if they are not already present in $PATH. If they are present, it
does nothing. I don't know if this is done by purpose or by laziness.
I am too tired now to try to understand the difference between
if ( $\!:1 !~ \!:2\:* && $\!:1 !~ *\:\!:2\:* && $\!:1 !~ *\:\!:2 &&
$\!:1 !~ \!:2 ) setenv \!:1 \!:2\:${\!:1}; if ( $\!:1 !~ \!:2\:* )
setenv \!:1 \!:2`echo \:${\!:1} | /usr/bin/sed -e s%^\!:2\:%% -e
s%:\!:2\:%:%g -e s%:\!:2\$%%`
and
if ! eval test -z "\"\${$1##*:$2:*}\"" -o -z "\"\${$1%%*:$2}\"" -o -z
"\"\${$1##$2:*}\"" -o -z "\"\${$1##$2}\"" ; then
eval "$1=$2:\$$1"
fi
In any case, this code hasn't changed in 6 years.
