And all of this has nothing to do with the orignal issue /usr/local. I only suggested using something in $HOME for "user" based scripts which can be anything it does not matter.
It only serves to deflect from why is /usr/local/{bin,sbin} not part of the default search PATH? when its a FHS standard and has always been used for custom system wide installs? Obviously a competent system administrator can add this. However does this mean we should remove /usr/bin now to? since any competent admin can add that also.
Haha. Don't be so aggressive against discussion on an issue that you brought up in the first place. We're just trying to help put things in their proper place. But yeah I agree there are too many silly tangents on this issue. So let somebody submit a patch and get it over with.
yes, i don't see any harm in just adding it and moving on... this is heading toward bikeshed; in which case i choose green. C Anthony
