It sounds like you're running a nightly build from the PPA: https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/wiki/Nightly-builds https://launchpad.net/~fish-shell/+archive/ubuntu/nightly-master fish version 2.0.0 has a number of security problems that can allow other people to take over your system in the right circumstances (if you are running fish_config/webconfig.py, for example). If the version of Ubuntu you are using does not ship 2.1.1 or 2.2.0, I suggest using the fish-shell release PPA: https://launchpad.net/~fish-shell/+archive/ubuntu/release-2 Something like this should do the trick: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:fish-shell/release-2 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install fish David Adam fish committer zanc...@ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Fish-users mailing list Fish-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fish-users
