Looking at http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/b/bash/, it seems that up to bash_3.2-0 (which was shipped by Hardy 08.04 LTS) bash's /etc/skel/.bashrc defined PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;${USER}@${HOSTNAME}: ${PWD/$HOME/~}\007"'
Beginning with bash_3.2-4 (Intrepid 08.10) PROMPT_COMMAND is no longer present in files shipped by bash under /etc/skel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1132700 Title: gnome-terminal >= 3.7 requires sourcing of vte.sh login script To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-terminal/+bug/1132700/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
