Urgs, wait a second?
Adding /usr/local/bin (where no debian package should ever put
anything), /usr/bin/X11 (where only graphical stuff should be) and
/usr/games (we have games doing debian archive work?) fixes the issue?
That sounds seriously wrong.
Reading bug 341326 it seems that any PATH=... will do that is long
enough, e.g.
PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/dsfasdfdsafdsa/fdsaf/fdasf/dasfdasfdas
Better use something like that where there is no chance of accidentaly
getting the wrong binaries, like an experimental gzip installed in
/usr/local/bin.
