Description of problem: /etc/profile.d/PackageKit.sh loads first, so all the following profile.d snippets are subject to pk-command-not-found, which can drastically slow down the loading of the shell. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 16 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install ack 2. wonder why your terminals are taking so long now 3. edit /etc/profile to add "set -x" at the top and "set +x" at the bottom 4. note the pause is in /etc/bash_completion.d/ack.bash_completion.sh 5. edit that file to remove 2>/dev/null from the call to ack-grep on line 18 6. note the pause is because pk-command-not-found is running Actual results: It's slow! Expected results: It's still slow, but not as much! Additional info: Could also fix by modifying ack.bash_completion.sh but that doesn't scale. It's dubious but common for scripts to call a string of commands with 2>/dev/null looking for the right one. I think the right answer is to push PackageKit.sh to the end of profile.d loading, probably by naming it zPackageKit.sh or something like that.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): PackageKit-command-not-found-0.6.21-2.fc16.x86_64 (sorry, I put the Fedora version in the description above)
This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
