** Also affects: bash (Debian) via https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=675008 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bash in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/890916 Title: Login shell not sourcing /etc/profile and ${HOME}/.bashrc Status in bash package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in bash package in Debian: Unknown Bug description: bash does not source /etc/profile and ${HOME}/.bashrc for login shells, ignoring some settings done within these files. Additionally aliases are set while sourcing /etc/profile and ${HOME}/.bashrc overwriting each other. Aliases shall be read at one place only from one source if possible. Not from /etc/profile.d/aliases.sh, from within /etc/profile and from ${HOME}/.bashrc there is to much posibility you'll change aliases overwritten by other parts while executing login leading to different command behaviour later on. This can be something really bad: assume one awaiting "rm" aliased to "rm -i" kicking of "rm -r *" assuming this set because he/she is used to it from xterm, but it isn't set this way login in from somewhere else via ssh or ssh+screen and having again a different behaviour logging in with xterm+byobu or ssh+byobu enabled!
