Nothing wrong with a long path. Debian's is actually short:

[8:40pm] hamish@yodeller:~> echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games:.

Here's the path from a Solaris system at the university where I study:

[8:40pm] moffatt@yallara[~] echo $PATH
/home/m/moffatt/bin:/usr/local/pkg/jdk1.2/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/bin/X11:/usr/local/pkg/teTeX/bin:/usr/local/pkg/nmh/bin:/usr/local/pkg/netpbm:/usr/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/ucb:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/local/pkg/oracle/product/8.0.3/bin:/usr/local/pkg/oracle/product/8.0.3/ows/3.0/bin:/usr/local/pkg/wincenter:/usr/local/pkg/odi/os5.0.3/sunpro/bin:/usr/local/pkg/odi/osi2.2/bin:/usr/local/pkg/gnat/bin:/usr/local/pkg/iona/OrbixMT_2.3c/bin:/usr/local/bin:/home/b/blyall/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/pkg/rational/releases/rose.4.0.16b/bin
