Bug 564142 – sys-apps/elfix - paxmark.sh cannot find paxctl and paxctl-ng

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alexander Tsoy 2015-10-26 05:53:37 UTC]

paxmark.sh uses login shell as an interpreter:

# head -n1 /usr/sbin/paxmark.sh 
#!/bin/bash -l

Thus it cannot find paxctl and paxctl-ng when called by the non-root user:

# echo -e 'echo $PATH\ntype -p paxctl\ntype -p paxctl-ng' | sudo -u portage /bin/bash -l
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.9.3:/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/gcc-bin/4.9.3

# echo -e 'echo $PATH\ntype -p paxctl\ntype -p paxctl-ng' | sudo -u portage /bin/bash 
/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/opt/bin
/sbin/paxctl
/usr/sbin/paxctl-ng

stabilization request is bug #564286.  close this bug if the path issue is fixed.
