Package: x11-common Version: 1:7.3+10 Severity: normal
When I log in through gdm no login shell is run. I can tell because when I run bash -l manually it adds ~/bin to my path but it is not there when I log in through gdm. I normally fix this by writing my own .xinitrc/.Xsession but the global xsession scripts should be fixed so that the wm sees full environment. Genereal solution might be hard, though. It would be easily fixable for bash by adding stuff to the session setup but ash/tcsh/... users should not be left out either I guess. Possibly the shell packages could install a script that could be used to execute a progrem as if it was executed from a login shell that would work the same for any shell :) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-3-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages x11-common depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.17 Debian configuration management sy ii debianutils 2.28.2 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.7-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.1-24 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip x11-common recommends no packages. -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
