I didn't say anything about emerge; I was talking about the Stage tarballs. I know, I know: Catalyst uses emerge.
But, hasn't anyone realized that bash is _broken_ if this file doesn't exist? Quoting from the upstream-provided man page, "When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is started, bash reads and executes commands from ~/.bashrc, if that file exists." Is that really the intention here? To break upstream-defined behavior? - John Alin Năstac wrote: > John R.
