Hello, please note, the bash(1) manpage describes when the ~/.profile is
read:
When bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, or as a
non-interactive shell with the --login option, it first reads
and executes commands from the file /etc/profile, if that
file exists. After reading that file, it looks for
~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile, in that
order, and reads and executes commands from the first one
that exists and is readable. The --noprofile option may be
used when the shell is started to inhibit this behavior.
A shell started in a terminal is an interactive shell but not a login shell.
What you probably want is ~/.profile:
When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is
started, bash reads and executes commands from
/etc/bash.bashrc and ~/.bashrc, if these files exist. This
may be inhibited by using the --norc option. The --rcfile
file option will force bash to read and execute commands from
file instead of /etc/bash.bashrc and ~/.bashrc.
Thanks
