[Comment 3 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2004-02-04 22:30:53 UTC]

what's the output of `which xlincity`?

[Comment 4 David Grant 2004-02-04 22:39:53 UTC]

/usr/bin/xlincity

[Comment 5 David Grant 2004-02-04 22:50:13 UTC]

bash-2.05b$ locate xlincity
/usr/bin/xlincity
/usr/games/bin/xlincity

I tried /usr/games/bin/xlincity and it worked.

[Comment 6 David Grant 2004-02-04 22:50:37 UTC]

where did the /usr/bin/xlincity come from?

[Comment 7 SpanKY 2004-02-04 22:59:24 UTC]

you tell us

what does `qpkg -f /usr/bin/xlincity` show ?

[Comment 8 David Grant 2004-02-04 23:06:48 UTC]

I checked that myself and I got nothing....

Confusing.  I have never installed lincity before, except for with gentoo ebuilds.  I unemerged lincity and deleted /usr/bin/xlincity and then I re-emerged it.  

[Comment 9 SpanKY 2004-02-04 23:10:20 UTC]

so does it work fine now ?

[Comment 10 David Grant 2004-02-04 23:22:04 UTC]

Yeah it seems to.  I still have no idea where that binary came from.
