Package: base-files
Version: 3.1.12
Severity: important

base-files includes share/dot.profile which reads:

    # ~/.profile: executed by Bourne-compatible login shells.

    if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
      . ~/.bashrc
    fi

    mesg n

This is incorrect. The *ksh derivate shells also read ~/.profile and the
definitely should not read . ~/.bashrc. 

Please move this code to correct location share/dot.bash_profile 

    # ~/.bash_profile  - Bash specific settings

    if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
      . ~/.bashrc
    fi
