I even echo > $PATH and it's still the original. This dont work! The PATH is only set for the shell-script itself and the "child"-programs started inside this script. You can source (include) the script to yous current shell with > . pathrddtool.sh or include the PATH statement in your ~/.bashrc I prefere to install packages in /usr/local/$PROGNAME/ and make a symlink to /usr/local/bin/ Cheers Bastian -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/rrd-users WebAdmin http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/lsg2.cgi
