Follow-up Comment #1:

That is a very good bug report.

I agree the GNUstep.sh should not add paths that are already
there in the PATH.

In fact, it's supposed to already do it ;-) ... but instead
of checking each path separately (eg, checking that
/home/fwang/GNUstep/Tools is already in the PATH, checking that
/usr/bin is already in the PATH etc) it checks them all as
a block (ie, it checks that /home/fwang/GNUstep/Tools:/usr/bin:... 
as a single, big string, is not already in the PATH).

I think that might have worked in v1 when all the paths where
stuff like /usr/GNUstep/System/Tools etc. but with v2 some
paths could be (as in your case) /usr/bin or such that are
already in the PATH while other paths aren't.

We'll rewrite the code and improve it so that it does the
right thing for 2.0.7

Thanks
