Public bug reported:

I tried to change the PS1 for all users by editing /etc/bash_bashrc.

Expected:

PS1 to be modified for all users.

Actual result:

PS1 was not modified for any users because the /skel/.bashrc overrides
the /etc/bash_bashrc PS1 setting with the exact same value.

PS1 should not be set in the skel/.bashrc. If users wish to customize
their local .bashrc they can, but the default installation should not
prevent setting a system wide PS1.
