Where is a PATH corrupted under the GNOME

[audriusb at homelan.lt]

Thanks, settings in ~/.bashrc aren't redefined.
Standard place for system-wide settings allways was /etc/profile or
/etc/profile.local. I haven't found profile.local in HOARY; settings in
/etc/profile are redefined.
I think that UBUNTU designers made a bug here: there is no room for system-wide
settings and I had to modify .bashrc for every user.
New Linuxes designers should respect UNIX standards and agreements. Isn't it?
