It seems like a typical = bikeshed > situation. It is not clear to me after reading r343416 and D18872 what this change = is trying to solve. PS1 should have a reasonable default. If that default is not reasonable, = then we should change the C code. Maybe I see things differently, but I'd rather see PS1 default change so = no profile/shrc change is necessary. I prefer that sh, in its default configuration, not attempt to read = $HOME/.shrc, for security reasons. Further, it is documented that the contents of ENV may be ignored in = privileged mode, negating these changes. If you wanted your new shiny default PS1 to actually have an effect in = all modes (including privileged mode, where you probably want it), you = would have put it in /etc/profile and not in a file that is wholly = ignored by some modes (e.g., privileged mode). So the solution is not even the right one for the desired result. --=20 Devin
