Package: bash
Version: 3.1dfsg-8
Severity: minor
File: /etc/skel/.bashrc

/etc/skel/.bashrc contains these lines:

# enable color support of ls and also add handy aliases
if [ "$TERM" != "dumb" ]; then
    eval "`dircolors -b`"
    alias ls='ls --color=auto'
    #alias dir='ls --color=auto --format=vertical'
    #alias vdir='ls --color=auto --format=long'
fi

However, coreutils now includes /bin/dir and /bin/vdir as real commands,
equivalent to ls --format=vertical and ls --format=long, respectively.  Thus,
please either remove the commented-out aliases entirely, or replace them with:
#alias dir='dir --color=auto'
#alias vdir='vdir --color=auto'
