Public bug reported: Hi all,
Installing fish on my machine only added `/usr/bin/fish` to `/etc/shells` but not `/bin/fish`. However, on recent ubuntu releases `/bin` is a symlink to `/usr/bin`. So you can indeed set your usershell to `/bin/fish`. If you do that various things might break that rely on the $SHELL environment variable. For example, I was not able to set my display brightness until I manually added the missing entry to `/etc/shells`. Please add both values to `/etc/shells` like it is done to for bash. Thank you. ** Affects: fish (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1863790 Title: /etc/shells not set correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fish/+bug/1863790/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
