Package: bash Version: 4.1-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Hi,
The skeleton file /etc/skel/.bashrc is cloned for any new created user, but the inclussion of .bash_aliases is commented. Since a test if that file exists (which can only be created manually by the user) is already in place, that construction should be activated by default: --- .bashrc 2009-08-23 20:18:21.000000000 +0300 +++ .bashrc_NEW 2010-02-14 13:46:25.545505034 +0200 @@ -70,9 +70,9 @@ # ~/.bash_aliases, instead of adding them here directly. # See /usr/share/doc/bash-doc/examples in the bash-doc package. -#if [ -f ~/.bash_aliases ]; then -# . ~/.bash_aliases -#fi +if [ -f ~/.bash_aliases ]; then + . ~/.bash_aliases +fi # enable color support of ls and also add handy aliases if [ -x /usr/bin/dircolors ]; then Thanks -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages bash depends on: ii base-files 5.1 Debian base system miscellaneous f ii dash 0.5.5.1-3 POSIX-compliant shell ii debianutils 3.2.2 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.10.2-2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.7+20090803-2 shared libraries for terminal hand Versions of packages bash recommends: ii bash-completion 1:1.1-3 programmable completion for the ba Versions of packages bash suggests: pn bash-doc <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
