Bug#397073: Fwd: Bug#397073: konsole: not reading ~/.bashrc

[Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>]

Hi Carsten,

Since you said I should forward this, I'm doing so.  But I do have to
wonder why you didn't mail either the bug report of Bruce Sass yourself.

Hi Kurt,

thanks for pointing out the obvious >:/

The solution to the problem of not reading nor executing ~/.bashrc is that konsole is started in a way that makes it behave differently to what could have been expected by the users from experienced past behaviour, namely that konsole on start would execute the ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile.

The solution to the problem is actually to start konsole as a login shell, using the -ls option. After that, konsole will behave as expected.

Please forward this information to the forum a/o bug report comments, so that Bruce Sass will have his way, with all the other users also waiting eagerly for a solution to the problem.

Thanks in advance and keep up the good work and remedy new bugs ;-).


Regards

Carsten
