This is probably caused by incorrect permissions in the latest base-files' package contents. A release fixing this will be available shortly. For the time being, please check and correct perms in: /etc/bash.bash_logout /etc/profile.d /etc/profile.d/tzset.sh /etc/profile.d/tzset.csh /etc/profile.d/lang.csh /etc/profile.d/lang.sh /etc/bash.bashrc /etc/skel/.inputrc /etc/skel/.profile /etc/skel/.bashrc /etc/skel/.bash_profile /etc/profile All of them should have owner/group root.root and 644 perms (rw-r--r--) Hope that helps. -- Huella de clave primaria: AD8F BDC0 5A2C FD5F A179 60E7 F79B AB04 5299 EC56
