Description Gregorio Guidi 2004-10-01 11:12:46 UTC

Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

it seems there's yet another issue with the hacks in Xsession,
there are reports from a dozen of tcsh users saying that the line

eval `$SHELL -c 'if (-f /etc/csh.login) source /etc/csh.login; if (-f ~/.login) source ~/.login; /bin/sh -c set | egrep -v "^(BASH_VERSINFO|EUID|PPID|UID|GROUPS|SHELLOPTS|_)=" '

fails for them, unless IFS is added to the list of filtered variables (I can't understand why, though).

Comment 1 Gregorio Guidi 2004-10-02 01:39:31 UTC

I were mislead to think that it was different from this:

but probably I was wrong.

reopen: wrong resolution. yes, bugzilla sucks.
