Hi,
Recently, the value of my PATH variable seems to be messed up:
[asinha@ankur-laptop ~]$ echo $PATH
/usr/lib64/ccache:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/home/asinha/.local/bin:/home/asinha/bin
/usr/bin is supposed to come before /usr/sbin etc. This makes mock throw
an error:
mock -r fedora-rawhide-x86_64 rebuild
./python-taskreport-1.2.1-1.fc20.src.rpm
ERROR: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted
ERROR: The most common cause for this error is trying to run /usr/sbin/mock as an
unprivileged user.
ERROR: Check your path to make sure that /usr/bin/ is listed before /usr/sbin, or
manually run /usr/bin/mock to see if that fixes this problem.
Running /usr/bin/mock.. works, of course. I've checked the relevant
places, and everything seems to be in order. The EUID of my user is 1000
too, so there isn't a reason that /etc/profile should place the
directories incorrectly. Would anyone have an hints on correcting this?
There's nothing in my user's .bash_profile or .bashrc that modifies path
either.
I use byobu with a tmux backend, but I don't think that matters. I
opened a separate gnome-terminal without byobu and the EUID is correct
there too.
[asinha@ankur-laptop ~]$ id asinha
uid=1000(asinha) gid=1000(asinha) groups=1000(asinha),10(wheel),135(mock)

Thanks,
