Synopsis: periodic(8) scripts make unwarranted assumptions about PATH State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: vwe State-Changed-When: Fri Aug 20 09:09:09 UTC 2010 State-Changed-Why: Pat, it seems like noone cared much about the issue you filed in 8 years now. To me it looks like you screwed up your PATH and thus you cannot expect to start the right binaries if you do this. For periodic /etc/crontab is the right place to set PATH. For a user .profile or .cshrc it's not recommended to screw up PATH that way. You may risk a lot of problems more, not just with periodic and it's scripts. As I don't think there's much room for an official fix to change this, I'm closing this PR. I'll be happy to re-open this PR if there's a chance to have this solved cleanly.
