My patch also works with: * Gnome + Alt-F2 * XFCE + Alt-F2 * KDE This provides the desired behavior covers the main Ubuntu desktop managers, and the Bourne-compatible shells (dash, bash, ash, ksh) and would benefit the majority of [K/X/U]buntu users.
It does *not* break functionality on non-Bourne shells. Users of these shells will need to update their ~/.pam_environment or other .*rc scripts to add a fully qualified /home/user/bin to the PATH environment variable. Or, actually just: eval PATH="$PATH" as the problem seems to be that non-Bourne shells do not evaluate the ~ or the $HOME variables in the PATH declaration. Proposing for sponsorship for Intrepid. :-Dustin -- would be nice to add ~/bin to the default PATH https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/64064 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
