/compat/linux
yes
Following this trial, I've quickly found the responsible line
in $HOME/.cshrc :
setenv PREFIX /usr/local
No doubt that this is the reason for all my flash plugin trouble since
the time I added this line (less than two years ago), because I use to
go to root with calife(1) from the very beginning, I find it very
comfortable. But in this case it has cost a lot of time. But I've
learned a lot as well...
I am sure there is no need to confirm the solution of the "mystery".
Thank you very much for your great and patient help.
Best regards,
