What do you consider "the broken non-root paths"? Just curious.

I have to fix the path to deal with the complaints of users who complain
that e.g. "ifconfig" isn't installed, or who maybe have to type a full
path for common commands. There's IMHO no reason a normal desktop user
shouldn't be able to run many commands which reside in /sbin or /usr/sbin.


Unix has always been like that, too.


It used to be that many admin commands that are now in /sbin or
/usr/sbin used to be in /etc.  And /etc was never in any user's
path except for root's.
