So is mine (same version), so I don't know why it's looking in
/usr/local/bin. I have no alias mentioning elogviewer.

$ find /usr -name elogviewer 2> /dev/null
/usr/portage/app-portage/elogviewer
/usr/bin/elogviewer
$

$ grep /local/ /usr/bin/elogviewer
$

Nope. Unless I did something odd in 2007, I suppose. I don't like
mysteries :-(

Portage *never* installs anything in /usr/local. My best bet is that you
have been experimenting back in 2007 and probably copied the original
file in /usr/local. Remove it and then emerge elogviewer again

Indeed so.

As I said before, I've already done that - twice or three times now. I
get the same result. Something is apparently causing bash to seek the
file in /usr/local/bin/ instead of in /usr/bin/ .

[OT]
I have a more pressing problem now - someone has hacked into a
supposedly protected part of my website, so I must find what's failed and
fix it, or else find another package. No sleep for the wicked...
