There seems to be a problem with the latest builds: I can't run aptitude
from inside eshell. It complains about not finding ldconfig, start-stop-
daemon, etc:

NB: root's PATH should usually contain /usr/local/sbin, /usr/sbin and /sbin.
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
A package failed to install.  Trying to recover:
dpkg: warning: 'ldconfig' not found in PATH or not executable.

I used to get the same error when I was using the emacs cvs snapshot
versions for Debian by Romain Francoise.
