>Description:
I installed tcsh, and it seems to mostly work. However, the package
apparently modifies /etc/shells, in addition to installing tcsh in /bin
(besides $PREFIX/bin). But when it modifies /etc/shells, it puts in the
pathname of $PREFIX/bin/tcsh, not /bin/tcsh. If you're going to copy tcsh
to /bin, why not put in the path to it there?
