Bash Version: 4.2 Patch Level: 45 Release Status: release Description: I know this is something odd to do, I would like to start my windows manager from .bashrc. If I do so and hit ctrl-z while bash is asking me for command line, the job is suspended. I can't resume it : "bash: bg: job 1 started without job control" Repeat-By: echo "sleep 10" >> /tmp/bashrc bash --rcfile /tmp/bashrc [hit ctrl-z] Fix: Do not use .bashrc as it !
