Thanks Walt. slocate 3.3.3/3.4.4 sort of spreads out across the system and shows a lot of stuff that probably shouldn't be around anymore. /etc/env.d/gcc looks like the list of things I want to get rid of. I'll try to double check against a system that's not having this problem and experiement a bit with just deleting this stuff. (After doing some backups first.) Cheers, Mark
