/etc/profile problems

OK, so for some reason, half of my /etc/profile dissapeared. I cant explain it, but it looks like only the compiler settings disappeared.

Could someone post what the default /etc/profile looks like.

Jeez, things have been going wrong since I upgraded the GCC.

Re: /etc/profile problems

That's *almost* the default /etc/profile

#
# /etc/profile
#

export PATH="/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin"

export MANPATH="/usr/man:/usr/X11R6/man"
export LESSCHARSET="latin1"
export INPUTRC="/etc/inputrc"
export LESS="-R"

export PS1='[u@h W]$ '

# not in default profile
#export PS1='e[0;34m[e[0;32mue[0;31m@e[0;32mh e[0;33mWe[0;34m]$e[0;39m '
#export PS1='[e[0;32mbash-v e[0;33mwe[0;39m]$e[0;39m '

export PS2='> '

umask 022

# not in default profile
eval `dircolors -b`


# load profiles from /etc/profile.d
#  (to disable a profile, just remove execute permission on it)
for profile in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do
  if [ -x $profile ]; then
    source $profile
  fi
done
unset profile

if [ -f $HOME/.bash_profile ]; then
  . $HOME/.bash_profile
fi

# End of file

Re: /etc/profile problems

Thats what my profile looks like. 

Some package upgrade must have changed it. Im not having any problems, so I guess thats how its suppose to be.

Re: /etc/profile problems

Only the bash package should change /etc/profile.  That's the point of having the drop-in /etc/profile.d/ directory.

Re: /etc/profile problems

Yeah, the profile.d is great. It makes things much easier. I didnt have that in Slackware. What package creates that?

Re: /etc/profile problems

/etc/profile.d is part of the filesystem package.
