Package: base-files Version: 5.0.0 Severity: normal File: /usr/share/base-files/dot.bashrc
Since /usr/share/base-files/dot.bashrc exports PS1, this means that subshells inherit the value rather than setting sensible defaults. zsh has a different prompt expansion syntax, so when it starts as a subshell of bash, it'll display a prompt of (literally) \h:\w\$ which is not very useful. If I unset PS1 before I switch shells, then zsh sets a proper default instead. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages base-files depends on: ii base-passwd 3.5.22 Debian base system master password ii gawk [awk] 1:3.1.6.dfsg-4 GNU awk, a pattern scanning and pr ii mawk [awk] 1.3.3-15 a pattern scanning and text proces base-files recommends no packages. base-files suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[email protected]> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
