I put the line PATH=${PATH}:/usr/bin/vendor_perl in /etc/environment with the effect that I was no longer able to log in to GNOME. The loginmanager resets after entering the password and prompts me again for user/pass. Removing the line from /etc/environment fixes this behavior. > However /etc/profile.d is used by most DEs. Did you export PATH? Not that I'm aware of. Until the last update I didn't need to do anything. The perl files (.csh .sh) in /etc/profile.d are as they were shipped by the perl package and as far as I understand they do export PATH.
