I strongly oppose the bug request, by the same reasons pointed out by Rhonda:
- It does NOT improve security at all, a malicious user could revert the changes or do worse. - It would prevent intentional overriding of tools. By the same reason /usr/local/bin comes before /usr/bin, ~/bin should come first. User tools should override local tools, which in turn override system tools. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/684393 Title: $PATH discrepency when ~/bin exists To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash/+bug/684393/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
