Subject: RE: /etc/profile in BASH
Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2000 14:18:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <C322F78942E6D311AF8800D0B73C4FD8830D31@CUPEX3.rational.com> (raw)

Example?  Why would it be?  And if it is, wouldn't BASH use the new value to
determine where to get ~/.profile and ~/.bashrc?  (I should test that,
but...)

Point is that doing this in /etc/profile subverts --noprofile and --norc
options in BASH.

It's in case $HOME is set or changed by /etc/profile.
