I have been using mailfilter 0.2.4 for the last few months. I had
downloaded and built from the tarball. I now wanted to upgrade and since
an rpm was available, I downloaded that and did an rpm -ivh. 

The problem I am facing is that the tarball (0.2.4) had got installed into
/usr/local/bin/ whereas the rpm put the executable in /usr/bin. Now when I
run mailfilter, it still executes the old 0.2.4 version as is seen from
the log. As both /usr/local/bin and /usr/bin are in the path, I renamed
the executable in /usr/local/bin to mailfilter.old. 

Now when I run mailfilter from the command line, it gives me the following
error :

[root@farzaan bin]# mailfilter
bash: /usr/local/bin/mailfilter: No such file or directory
-------------------------------

I can run it if I give the full path on the command line. I have got
around this by copying the new executable to /usr/local/bin but what I
want to know is that is there a better way around ?

regards,

Sharukh.
