Description Karel Volný 2011-12-05 17:05:22 UTC 
Description of problem:
/etc/csh.login adds "/usr/X11R6/bin" path element

but this file is not sourced by bash (and ksh, for the record), making the environment in different shells inconsistent


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
setup-2.5.58-7.el5

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
we've discovered this while running the automated test
/CoreOS/setup/Regression/bz457243-non-interactive-login-shell
which compares PATH for the default shell (bash) and for tcsh

  
Actual results:
1c1
< /usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
---
> /usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
:: [   FAIL   ] :: Comparing the path to the one returned by the original shell (Expected 0, got 1)


Expected results:
:: [   PASS   ] :: Comparing the path to the one returned by the original shell
