Any opinions on which should go first in the path: /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin?
Arguments I can see: /usr/bin: this is where Debian stuff goes. If you want to override Debian stuff with your own stuff, 'apt remove' is pretty straightforward. /usr/local/bin: say you compile your own gcc. This is where it goes. You may not want to remove the Debian gcc because many things depend on it, using equivs may be a pain, etc. There is also the issue of info and man paths. It would be nice to have these paths correspond to the PATH, but maybe not essential. Any feelings on this? -chris
