yep, that's what I was looking at. Current status is thus:
- I have the code to make this happen (at least for bourne-compatible
shells) ready
- It will be included in package version 1.4.9 (which I just send to my
sponsor for upload).
BUT that code isn't active by default because it needs to get added
to /etc/profile which can't be done automatically at the moment (as that
belongs to the base-files package).
I'm stuck without a way to resolve that ATM as the base-files maintainer
does not think it a good idea to add a mechanism to allow this, and he
seems to feel that the default /etc/profile should be as simple and basic
as possible, so getting the snippet added directly is out also.
