[Gambas-user] understanding and learning gambas

[Primorec]

Gambas gurus,

I have few questions for you:

A) I've compiled gambas on RH8 system. The result were 4 executables
(gambas,gbx,gbc, gba, gbi)

B) install process installed them in /opt/gambas/bin and made symbolic
link from /usr/bin to /opt/gambas/bin

   So fas so good.  "gambas" works flawlessly.

C) I've decided to have symbolic links from /usr/local/bin to /opt/gambas/bin.

       "gambas" stopped working. 

All I get on a screen is 

[igor at ...40... ~]$ gambas
gambas: Command not found.

So, I've checked "which gambas", echo $PATH, echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

[igor at ...40... ~]$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
[igor at ...40... ~]$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/geda/lib
[igor at ...40... ~]$ which gambas
/usr/local/bin/gambas
[igor at ...40... ~]$

Everything seems OK to me.  Can somebody bring some light to this issue ?

Thanks

Igor

P.S:  Is there a reason to have "gambas" statically linked ?
gambas = statically linked
gbx,gbc, gba, gbi = dynamically linked
