Which shell?  Bash?  Bash remembers paths to binaries for later use.
You can invoke 'hash' on the command line in order to see what's
already cached.  If you install a program in /usr/local/bin/ and
invoked a program in /usr/bin/ with the same name before, the file in
/usr/bin will be executed because its path is already cashed.

You can clear the cache with

  hash -r

and then the program which is found first in PATH will be executed.

Regards,
  Reinhard
