Hi, In the current AMI's at cloud.ubuntu.com (search:lucid 64 ebs) the default bashrc has:
[ -z "$PS1" ] && return Which of course means that it is not trivial to append to the .bashrc Naturally this default setting is sensible for people logged in, and interactive cloud instances are an important use case. However, but since these amis are the same as at[0], whose url suggests server use acses, I wonder if it isn't reasonable to have the default bashrc without this early return? For the record I'm trying to get the AMI to the point where I install Chef-solo, with the particular ruby install I need, and then can hand off all these sorts of issues to chef-solo. Have I missed a trick, or some AMI that doesn't have this behavior as default? I'd be interested in hearing how others handle this.
