Ran into this again today. I understand the desire to set PS1 consistently across users, sessions, etc - however this makes changing it harder - since instead of setting it in one place (I was trying to drop it into /etc/profile.d/prompt.sh), this gets overridden by each user's individual ~/.bashrc that they inherited from /etc/skel.
Proposed: Move any PS1 related settings to the global bashrc, which can then be overridden at later state, and remove from the /etc/skel/bash.bashrc -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/969559 Title: /etc/skel/.bashrc should not set PS1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash/+bug/969559/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
