   Where are your joe binaries installed?  The default editor script expects that    
   joe is installed in /usr/bin ...  On some distros, the joe package installs to    
   /usr/local/bin instead, causing this issue.   
      
   If you build joe from source code, make sure you set the PREFIX to /usr and    
   not /usr/local ...
