gemini: is not https:, it's its own protocol. And it has different

If you log in and out daily then this wouldn't have helped.
The only situation in which 'rehash' would have helped is if some admin
moved where the lynx executable was, while you were currently logged in.
When the shell successfully runs a program, it keeps a note about where
it found it; if the

It's easy to use your own lynx.cfg while still keeping up with system
changes. This is documented near the top of the standard lynx.cfg; but
with an important omission.
lynx.cfg has an 'include' facility. So all you need to do is write:
INCLUDE:/etc/lynx-cur/lynx.cfg
