double NAK:

PATH is *ALWAYS* set earlier, e.g. cron sets it, bash itself does so as well.

The way that you implemented this it will *add* existing values to it, making 
them appear double. that is not right.

NO, this is wrong.

tell your Konsole to start a "login shell" instead.

bashrc settings are for NON-INTERACTIVE shell settings.

It's not bash's fault that konsole is retarded and assumes that "a user spawning 
a graphical shell" is not the same as "the user wants a login shell".

this patch is not acceptable. You're fixing a problem in the wrong place. Fix 
Konsole to use .bash_profile or run a login shell instead by default.
