I wouldn't think a rpm package would bring that in ? is your username fcrozat ? or do you have a user named fcrozat ? did you type echo $PATH from a root login ? which you did before but I am just confirming it .. something sounds strange here .. GNUstep is for LSB compliance, I think, can someone conform this ?
What version of mdk are you using ? 10.1 ? (I mis-spoke myself about /etc/bashrc, mine is customized. And I typed from my user's PATH, which is different than root's, sorry) On my other system, which is not custom but a fresh install, root's .bashrc is also setting the $PATH PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin Then /etc/profile seems to add /usr/X11R6/bin and /usr/games A look in rc.sysinit (which is a symlink to /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit) for the global path statements, verifing these lines: rc.sysinit: # Set the path rc.sysinit: PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin you have these in your posted path, *except* /usr/sbin/ Verify that it is missing in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit file, if so, add it, reboot and you should be back on track.
