MANUAL ACTIONS: Yes - NonUpdate
                If the VJE.VJE-RUN fileset is currently installed
                PHSS_27782 solves the problem and there are no
                manual actions needed. If the VJE.VJE-RUN fileset
                was once on the system and has been removed,
                edit /etc/PATH to remove the "bin" element.

AVAILABILITY: PHSS_27782 is available now.

CHANGE SUMMARY: Rev.01 - added PHSS_27782 information.
 ------------------------------------------------------------------
**REVISED 01**
 A. Background
    The VJE.VJE-RUN the vje Japanese Input Method. The fileset
    incorrectly adds "bin" to /etc/PATH. If VJE.VJE-RUN has
    ever been installed on the system, even if has been removed,
    the incorrect entry remains in /etc/PATH. A patch has been
    created for the VJE.VJE-RUN to correct /etc/PATH. However,
    this patch cannot be installed on a system where VJE.VJE-RUN
    has been removed. No patch is planned for systems where
    VJE.VJE-RUN has been removed.

**REVISED 01**
 B. Recommended solution
    If the VJE.VJE-RUN fileset is currently installed,
    install PHSS_27782.

    removed:

        Edit /etc/PATH to remove the "bin" element.

    Note: The "bin" element may occur at anywhere within
           /etc/PATH:

           start - bin:/path1:...
                      Remove "bin:"

           middle - ...:/path1:bin:/path2:...
                      Remove "bin:"

           end - ...:/path1:bin
