Just doing some re reading of your website and was wondering if
this path is acceptable.
It seems rather long compared to your example.
If it is, what can I do to clean this up ?
PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/
sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin
Well, /opt/local/bin and /opt/local/sbin are specified twice, and
don't need to be. Investigate where in your shell init scripts the
path is being set, and see if you are perhaps adding the MacPorts
paths to it in two different places. If so, remove one.
Pardon my ignorance how do I go about doing this.
So now how do I safely remove the extraneous parts of this PATH ?
I see your shell is bash:
SHELL=/bin/bash
Bash might look in one of several files for its initialization
instructions. These files are
called .profile, .bash_profile, .bashrc, .login, and .bash_login,
and would be directly in your home directory. Which of those files
do you have, and what is their contents?
You also have /usr/local/bin in your path, and it is not supported
to have anything in /usr/local/bin (lib, include, etc.) when using
MacPorts because it can interfere, so I recommend you remove that
from your path and remove whatever you have in /usr/local/bit
(lib, include, etc.) as well.
Again the same here.
What's in /usr/local? Find out with:
find /usr/local
