I just discovered something odd that explains why umask isn't 
getting set for the user (me).

Traditionally (I researched countless sites about the proper 
place for things and, as I said, it has always worked in the 
past, right up until F26), umask is supposed to be in 
bash_profile.

However, I just noticed that my setting gets unset in 
/etc/bashrc, because in Fedora 26, umask is set in the system 
bashrc in /etc, thus unsetting my setting.

I haven't looked at the value of the PATH variable, but I 
believe it is okay (I just append $HOME/.local/bin) and this 
appears to occur in both virtual terminals and graphical. As 
well, my aliases and functions work, so, what it all boils 
down to, as far as KDE is concerned, anyway, is that...

*umask must be set in .bashrc, not in .bash_profile*
