I know it did mine:There's three different login scripts that bash can use.. The 2.4.3 postflight script knows how to patch .profile and .bash_profile... but if a .bash_login exists and .bash_profile does not exist then it will create a .profile that is never used. Perhaps that is what happened?
Could be. The script that does the patching is installed into / Application/MacPython 2.4, if someone that knows about all of the details of the startup sequence of bash could have a look at that script I'd appreciate it; that way we could have a fully correct script for 2.4.4 and 2.5.1.
