Yeah, I also noticed that path problem too. I mentioned it to Simon and he took care of that for both dot.cshrc and dot.profile. I think he may have also removed refrences to /usr/X11R6 as well, but I'm not 100% sure on that.


Another quirk is that newaliases isn't run after installation, but I had already mentioned that and has been noted.

Just like you said, most things are easily fixed (i.e. path entries) or worked around. :) Matt's doing a good job of updating the errata as soon as quirks are found. I just hope people read the errata before they install so they know what to expect.
