That error could be phrased better... If you don't have a . element, you probably have an empty element (which is what the '' is trying to say). For example: /usr/bin:/bin::/home/ross/bin The :: after /bin is bad, and it's this which needs to be removed. This is normally due to bad concatenation when extending $PATH.

Actually it's probably worth printing out the parsed PATH when this warning fires to help solve the problem, I've seen a few people hit this recently and it's not obvious what the problem is sometimes.

But the problem is the assumption of the length of the prefix, that is, assumption of the final formatting to the user, which isn't ideal. What we should do, I think, is teach the UI log formatter to indent subsequent lines based on its own prefix, so that "foo\nbar" would show up like this: ERROR: foo bar Rather than: ERROR: foo bar -- Christopher Larson ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread
