cowsay report it can't find cowfiles, even if they exist. Maybe due to merged usr. https://bpa.st/WRBQ https://bpa.st/JQ7Q https://bpa.st/QFLQ

Sorry. Here is : https://bpa.st/7N4A PATH = /home/anard/Applications/git-subrepo/lib:/home/anard/Applications/git-subrepo/lib:/home/anard/gems/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/lib/llvm/11/bin

/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin This looks weird and duplicative. Have you updated your env and re-sourced /etc/profile? These directories shouldn't exist multiple times -- they are all the same directory on merged-usr. Looking at the cowsay script, it actually tries to see if the path it is invoked as (in this case, /usr/sbin/cowsay) contains /bin/ and otherwise assumes it is running from a git repo and stops looking for cowfiles in /usr/share. It's a bad upstream design, although also solvable by setting PATH correctly.

Thx. I just checked, it seems that my /usr/local/(s)bin are different : $ ls -l / | grep bin lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 25 mars 07:53 bin -> usr/bin lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 25 mars 07:53 sbin -> usr/bin $ ls -l /usr/ | grep bin drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 102400 21 mai 07:52 bin lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 25 mars 07:53 sbin -> bin $ ls -l /usr/local/ | grep bin drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2 nov. 2023 bin drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 24 juin 2023 sbin So I removed /bin, /sbin and /usr/bin from my .bashrc and it works well now. Thank you
