Description:
XDM defaults PATH to /bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb. Upon logging in, /etc/profile then adds /usr/local/bin to the PATH *at the end*. Consequently, /usr/local/bin/ is shadowed by /usr/bin, which is not the expected behavior. A possible solution, suggested by seth in that thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1864289 ; is to compile XDM with a different value for DEF_USER_PATH (empty? /usr/local before /usr?). Additional info: * package version: xorg-xdm 1.1.12-1 |

Please test 1.1.12-2 with common default PATHs preset.
