Description rh2021 1999-04-11 16:52:27 UTC
Could not find programs in ~/bin but could find them
when I said
      $HOME/bin

    If the machine is on NIS, the problem does not occur.
Using a normal
    passwd file it does. I have ltrace and strace to upload.

Breaks programs like enlightenment which look for files
using which.
