Shrug... ---- I am no shell expert but when I type 'echo $PATH', /usr/local/bin comes before /usr/bin and /usr/local/sbin comes before /usr/sbin so it would seem to me that it is standard behavior to execute binaries from /usr/local/... first if found. That has also been my experience in the past when I have compiled secondary installation of openldap/openssl/kerberos/cyrus-sasl because of the outdated installations on previous RHEL setups and it was virtually impossible to remove the base installation libraries of these packages because of dependencies. Thus installing the amanda rpm's without first removing your source installation was doomed before you began.
