[i2c] sensors-detect path issue under fc5 / 6 -- fix included.

[Vince Spinelli]

It's a simple one, but it's worth noting.

I'm unawares of other distributions, but under Fedora Core 5 and 6, the
i2cdetect command is located in the /usr/sbin directory, not /sbin/ nor
/usr/local/sbin.

As a result, an error message is encountered when running
sensors-detect.sh as either root, sudo root, or a normal user.

The fix is as follows... inside of the sensors-detect.sh script, there's a
segment to add directories to path.

Change -->
# Just in case a root user doesn't have /sbin in his/her path for some reason
# (was seen once)
$ENV{PATH} = '/sbin:'.$ENV{PATH}
	unless $ENV{PATH} =~ m,(^|:)/sbin/?(:|$),;
# Same for /usr/local/sbin since we need i2cdetect which is installed there
# by default (reported by Lennard Klein)
$ENV{PATH} = '/usr/local/sbin:'.$ENV{PATH}
	unless $ENV{PATH} =~ m,(^|:)/usr/local/sbin/?(:|$),;

To -->
# Just in case a root user doesn't have /sbin in his/her path for some reason
# (was seen once)
$ENV{PATH} = '/sbin:'.$ENV{PATH}
	unless $ENV{PATH} =~ m,(^|:)/sbin/?(:|$),;
# Same for /usr/local/sbin since we need i2cdetect which is installed there
# by default (reported by Lennard Klein)
$ENV{PATH} = '/usr/local/sbin:'.$ENV{PATH}
	unless $ENV{PATH} =~ m,(^|:)/usr/local/sbin/?(:|$),;
# Same for /usr/sbin, for FC default dir (location of i2cdetect - V.
Spinelli)
$ENV{PATH} = '/usr/sbin:'.$ENV{PATH}
	unless $ENV{PATH} =~ m,(^|:)/usr/sbin/?(:|$),;


And that fixes it.
