It is not a bash file, it is used by pam_env and contains lines with
a simple key=value syntax.

One of libc6 or locales will modify it.

strange entry in /etc/init.d

2002-02-17 Thread Andreas Goesele
Hi,

unexpectedly I found my LANG locale env variable change. I took a look
into /etc/environment and found as last entry:

LANG=C

I found this strange as I thought for bash one would write

export LANG=C (or LANG=C and then export LANG)

and my own entry

export [EMAIL PROTECTED]

wasn't changed.

The file was modified while the machine was unattended and downloading
or possibly starting to install for an "apt-get update".

Is it possible that some package would add such a line to my
/etc/environment? What package could that be? Or should I worry about
an intruder?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Andreas Goesele
