/usr/include/paths.h has: /* All standard utilities path. */ #define _PATH_STDPATH "/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:"
The current directory appears to have been added accidentally years ago. Can I go ahead and take it out (the colon)? The paths for rescue already do not have the current directory. The main use for _PATH_STDPATH is to find all standard utilities, such as for the POSIX-specified confstr(_CS_PATH), 'getconf PATH' and 'command -p'. Some utilities also use it instead of _PATH_DEFPATH for root, but these values tend to be overridden by /etc/login.conf and/or shell startup files. -- Jilles Tjoelker _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
