Comment 3 Jeffrey C. Ollie 2009-11-06 20:08:40 UTC
After doing some more investigation, I found this:

[root@lt26923 ~]# cd /etc/profile.d/
[root@lt26923 profile.d]# . elektra-elektraenv.sh 
-bash: export: `found.': not a valid identifier
-bash: export: `found.': not a valid identifier
-bash: export: `found.': not a valid identifier
-bash: alias: Command: not found
-bash: alias: not: not found
-bash: alias: found.: not found
-bash: export: `found.': not a valid identifier
-bash: export: `found.': not a valid identifier
-bash: export: `found.': not a valid identifier
-bash: alias: Command: not found
-bash: alias: not: not found
-bash: alias: found.: not found
[root@lt26923 profile.d]# rpm -qf elektra-elektraenv.sh 
elektra-0.7.0-2.fc12.x86_64

Comment 4 Jeffrey C. Ollie 2009-11-06 20:14:16 UTC
Looking at /etc/profile.d/elektra-elektraenv.sh I see the following:

    if [ -z "$KDB" ]; then
            KDB=kdb
    fi

The elekra package does not provide a binary called "kdb", instead it's called "elektra-kdb".  /etc/profile.d/elektra-elektraenv.sh probably needs to be patched...

Reassigning to elektra.

Made the following change and things are working now:
