Hi, I've since figured out how to get zsh to run the activateDesktopProfiles script natively -> attached is the improved with_bugfix_zlogin version that doesn't detour through bash.
Regarding modularization of the on-logon script: tcsh/csh on-logon script is now also modularized, that leaves /etc/zlogin and /etc/profile as the only 2 shell on-logon scripts that aren't currently modularized. -- Cheers, cobaco (aka Bart Cornelis)
# /etc/zsh/zlogin: system-wide .zlogin file for zsh(1).
#
# This file is sourced only for login shells. It
# should contain commands that should be executed only
# in login shells. It should be used to set the terminal
# type and run a series of external commands (fortune,
# msgs, from, etc.)
#
# Global Order: zshenv, zprofile, zshrc, zlogin
# This fixes the desktop-profiles corner-case where a graphical client is
# started through an ssh -X session (in which the Xsession.d scripts aren't
# run, so we need to make sure the profiles are activated according to the
# specified settings at login).
#
DESKTOP_PROFILES_SCRIPT="/etc/X11/Xsession.d/20desktop-profiles_activateDesktopProfiles"
if (test -f $DESKTOP_PROFILES_SCRIPT); then
# testing SSH_CLIENT as the woody ssh doesn't set SSH_CONNECTION
# also testing SSH_CONNECTION as the current ssh manpage no longer mentions
# SSH_CLIENT, so it appears that variable is being phased out.
if ( (test -n "${SSH_CLIENT}") || (test -n "${SSH_CONNECTION}") ) && \
(test -n "${DISPLAY}"); then
# zsh needs the shwordsplit option set otherwise activateDesktopProfiles
# script wil error out
if (setopt | grep shwordsplit); then
source $DESKTOP_PROFILES_SCRIPT;
else
setopt shwordsplit;
source $DESKTOP_PROFILES_SCRIPT;
unsetopt shwordsplit;
