Check if the binaries are still marked as executable. If not you can make
them executable again using chmod. An example:
chmod a+x /usr/bin/less
If that does not work you can check if all libraries still exist. You can
check that using ldd. Another example:
[pc135a;~]-6> ldd /usr/bin/less
/lib/nfslock.so.0 => /lib/nfslock.so.0 (0x4000d000)
libncurses.so.3.4 => /lib/libncurses.so.3.4 (0x40012000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40057000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
(The specific output can differ). If one or more libraries are missing you
will have to reinstall those (and optionally run ldconfig).
