Hello Tycho! > the login shell detection (leading dash: -bash) is apparently broken - at > least, ~/.bashrc is not sourced.
As far as I understand the manual ~/.bashrc is not sourced from a login-shell, see https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bash.html#Bash-Startup-Files At least in Debian 11 the default ~/.profile cares for sourcing ~/.bashrc, that might explain the effect you describe. Best regards, Martin
