How would I get this to reflect the /opt location?
$whereis apachectl
/usr/sbin/apachectl

Just put /opt/local/apache2/bin/ at the front of your PATH env var.


I have had that for ages:
$echo $PATH
/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/Users/me/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/ sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin

Maybe it can not be changed:
DESCRIPTION
The whereis utility checks the standard binary directories for the speci-
     fied programs, printing out the paths of any it finds.

I think the answer is going to be to use `which`

$which perl
        /opt/local/bin/perl
$whereis perl
        /usr/bin/perl

Or maybe even better:
$which -a perl
        /opt/local/bin/perl
        /usr/bin/perl
