Summary: /etc/skel/.bash_profile should source /etc/profile
Product: Codex
Version: stable grimoire
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: CLOSED
Severity: trivial
Priority: P2
Component: shell-term-fm
AssignedTo: sm-grimoire-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
ReportedBy: eric AT sandall.us


In order to allow admins to change the default profiles in one spot for all
users (current and future), .bash_profile should source /etc/profile instead
of
duplicating it.

Proposed new /etc/skel/.bash_profile:
----
PATH1=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin
PATH2=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
PATH3=/usr/games:/usr/local/games
PATH4=/usr/bin/X11:~/bin
PATH=$PATH1:$PATH2:$PATH3:$PATH4
PS1='\u@\h:\w\$ '

if [ -f /etc/profile ]; then
source /etc/profile
fi

#iteration
for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh ; do
if [ -r "$i" ]; then
. $i
fi
done
----

Whoops, copied too much for that.

Should be:
----
PATH1=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin
PATH2=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
PATH3=/usr/games:/usr/local/games
PATH4=/usr/bin/X11:~/bin
PATH=$PATH1:$PATH2:$PATH3:$PATH4
PS1='\u@\h:\w\$ '

if [ -f /etc/profile ]; then
source /etc/profile
fi
----

Otherwise the iteration will be done twice. ;)

<sigh>

The sourcing should go first.
----
if [ -f /etc/profile ]; then
source /etc/profile
fi

PATH1=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin
PATH2=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
PATH3=/usr/games:/usr/local/games
PATH4=/usr/bin/X11:~/bin
PATH=$PATH1:$PATH2:$PATH3:$PATH4
PS1='\u@\h:\w\$ '
