Description Richard Walker 2005-05-20 02:11:09 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/103u (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/100

Description of problem:
running "tcsh -eX" for me produces this:
id -gn
id -un
id -u
[ cntrctrs = rjwalker -a 1009 -gt 99 ]
Then tcsh bails out - I do not get a new shell.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
setup-2.5.36-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log in with a user where the user id and group id are different
2. Run tcsh -eX
  

Actual Results:  You don't get a new shell.


Expected Results:  You should get a new shell!

Additional info:

The problem is the very beginning of /etc/csh.cshrc.  It shouldn't use exit
codes in this way.  (And neither should any other script in /etc/profile.d.)

This sort of problem was identified previously in bug 139988.
