I offer the following snippet of code that you can stick in your
.profile -- among other things (*), I use this code to get around the
problem that you reported:
# clean up paths
if perl -e 'require 5' >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then
PATH=`perl -e 'print join ":", grep {-d && !$d{$_}++} split /:/, $ENV{'PATH'}'`
MANPATH=`perl -e 'print join ":", grep {-d && !$d{$_}++} split /:/,
$ENV{'MANPATH'}'`
fi
Place this near the end of your .profile .
* This also preserves the order of things in your path, removes
non-existent directories, and removes duplicates.
