#21625: .bash_profile $PATH handled incorrectly ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: curtis_ovid_poe@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 1.8.0 Resolution: worksforme | Keywords: Port: | ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Comment(by autumnmist@…): When I upgraded to 10.6 I ended up having problems with /opt/local/* ending up before /usr/bin which messed up a number of my scripts. To upgrade to 10.6 Macports from 10.5 Macports, I completely uninstalled Macports (using this method http://trac.macports.org/wiki/Migration). I ended up not using Macports for a little while so only reinstalled a few ports a few days ago. Then I realized that my path was messed up and fixing it in .bashrc and .profile didn't help. After finding curtis_ovid's post, I realized that Macports was taking precedence in .bash_profile and proceeded to edit it and insert /usr/bin first. I don't know if this information will help or not but I definitely did a complete uninstall and then reinstall and ended up with the same problem. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/21625#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
