I'm glad the problem has been resolved. I could apologize to Matt Zimmerman but I don't understand how this relates to the xfree86 maintainer. In addition to this, it was not obvious to me until it has been solved. I wouldn't have reported it if I knew how to solve it. I know it's kind of a trivial thing, but I honestly hadn't noticed the existence of /root/.profile in the base system? until now. As a matter of fact, I'd even thought this was some kind of a feature. I wish I had the time to know about every detail but it's not possible. Sorry if this bug has bothered you. And well, you're the one who's calling what I wrote "rude and silly" so who's offensive? My only objective is to resolve whatever problem I had. In reporting a bug, there's always the risk of having made a mistake and looking silly. But in many cases, out of the many valid bugs I've reported I believe that improvements have been made. Testing is part of contribution. Could please one of you close this bug now? :> Best Regards, -- Eray (exa) Ozkural Comp. Sci.
