My patch also works with:
* Gnome + Alt-F2
* XFCE + Alt-F2
* KDE
This provides the desired behavior covers the main Ubuntu desktop
managers, and the Bourne-compatible shells (dash, bash, ash, ksh) and
would benefit the majority of [K/X/U]buntu users.
It does *not* break functionality on non-Bourne shells. Users of these shells
will need to update their ~/.pam_environment or other .*rc scripts to add a
fully qualified /home/user/bin to the PATH environment variable. Or, actually
just:
eval PATH="$PATH"
as the problem seems to be that non-Bourne shells do not evaluate the ~ or the
$HOME variables in the PATH declaration.
Proposing for sponsorship for Intrepid.
