Can anyone help me with this.

Currently, the "cd.." command no longer seems to be operating on my Mac.
See error below:
ShanMacBook-Pro:Documents ShanMacbookPro$ cd..
-bash: cd..: command not found
Not sure if it is a path issue:
Shan-MacBook-Pro:Documents ShanMacbookPro$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/git/bin
My machine:
Macbook Pro Late 2014
Yosemite 10.10.4
NodeJS installed
MeteorJS installed
Git installed
Use cd ..
You need a space between the cd and the ..
Let me know if that helps!

The specific package I'm referring to is trac-1.0.1-1.sdl6.noarch.rpm. According to this page:
http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm/ch-rpm-file-format.html
it seems to be part of the package release version. The fact that "sdl" does not appear in my /usr/lib/rpm/rpmrc file also suggests that it's not related to the architecture.
If you search google for sdl6, just about every hit is the name of an RPM package. Nowhere, however, could I find an explanation of what it means.
That's the distro tag (for CentOS normally el#). In this case sdl appears to be for Springdale Linux.

I have installed xmedcon-0.11.0-1.i686.rpm on my Fedora Linux machine. I ran the RPM file. Since I'm kind of new to Linux, I want to ask, where can I find the installed file and how can I run it?
Thanks.
From terminal use
$ rpm -ql xmedcon-0.11.0-1.i686 </code>
/etc/xmedconrc
/usr/bin/medcon
/usr/bin/xmedcon
You will see all the files installed. The main files will be above. From command line
run
$ /usr/bin/xmedcon
In case you already know the command name, you can type which medcon in a terminal and it should tell you where the executable is located.
And as full.stack.xchg said, just typing the name of the executable on a command line (or finding it in the graphical menu) will start the program.

I want to install Accerciser
my OS is fedora 16
I downloaded the package,
'cd' into the folder
and run './configure'
and get
checking for PYGOBJECT... no
configure: error: Package requirements (pygobject-3.0 >= PYGOBJECT_REQUIRED) were not met:
No package 'pygobject-3.0' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PYGOBJECT_CFLAGS and PYGOBJECT_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
however, I checked
it seems I have installed pygobject 3
how to deal with this problem?
thanks!
[root#kit accerciser-3.5.3]# rpm -qa|grep "pygobject"

Since a couple of days ago I'm getting this error below whenever I install any package with shared libraries:
"/sbin/ldconfig: $LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not a known library type"
Why I'm getting this error ?
How can I solve it ?
Sounds like something got messed up with ldconfig, try
sudo /sbin/ldconfig -v
Most likely the format in one of the files in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ is messed up. These files just contain paths or comments (lines starting with #) -- anything else will lead to problems similar to the one you are experiencing.
