I don't think it does that anymore. Are you still seeing the problem? Yes with gnome-shell-2.91.91-1.fc15.x86_64 my path is again properly ordered and I do not get /usr/bin prepended as the firt. (though gnome-shell itself crashes 30times per day with thunderbird) |
Description of problem: Gnome-shell 'destroy' my PATH setting from .bash_profile login. This is part of /usr/bin/gnome-shell: 'PATH' : '/usr/bin:' + os.environ.get('PATH', ''), This is definitely very bad idea of PATH handling. '/usr/bin' is already part of PATH and as a user I prefer to decide, where are the binaries loaded from. At best - the tool can check whether /usr/bin is already part of PATH and if it's not - it can attach this path as the 'last' one in the list. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-shell-2.91.5-3.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
