Hello, In BLFS-6.2, Chapter 3 - The Bash Startup Files, the /etc/profile.d/extra-prompt.sh provides interesting results. I must have had this problem a dozen times now, and since it is a simple fix haven't reported it until now. As written, if the user follows the entire instructions on the page to the letter, the following prompt is produced:
@viper : /[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# As soon as /etc/profile.d/extra-prompt.sh is removed, the prompt looks much more readable and reasonable: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# I looked hard for any warnings about this. I'm wondering what the true purpose of the extra-prompt.sh script is. I'm a big fan of a colorful but simple prompt, but this one seems broken in the way it is implemented.
