Great job tracking this down. Perfect bug report! Comparing RemoveProgram and SymlinkProgram the Cache file code is different. Duplicating code like that isn't good because it causes bugs just like this. I'll move the version from SymlinkProgram into a Gen_Env_Cache function in Functions/GoboLinux. Also, DisableProgram doesn't rebuild the cache either. That's probably a bug. -- Carlo J.
