** Tags added: rls-kk-incoming -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bash in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1097467 Title: bash does not fulfill --rcfile option properly Status in bash package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I am starting a bash shell using $ bash --noprofile --rcfile my-custom-bash-rc-file Due to the --rcflag, the newly started bash should *not* execute commands from /etc/bash.bashrc. That is at least how I interpret `man bash`: --rcfile file Execute commands from file instead of the system wide initialization file /etc/bash.bashrc and the standard personal initial‐ ization file ~/.bashrc if the shell is interactive (see INVOCATION below). However, it seems that the commands in /etc/bash.bashrc are in fact executed. To see/reproduce/diagnose this, on Ubuntu I believe one can just invoke bash like this (as the regular user): $ touch testrc $ env -i bash --noprofile --rcfile testrc The expected result would be that nothing special is printed on the terminal. However, there is an error message, which is printed from /etc/bash.bashrc. The "env -i" causes $HOME to not be set in the invoked shell, which in turn triggers the error. The error message is: > To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>". > See "man sudo_root" for details. Another way to see this -- without the "env -i" -- is to add a command to /etc/bash.bashrc, such as echo HELLO THERE To trigger the bug(?), one can then just do $ touch testrc $ bash --noprofile --rcfile testrc The expected result would be that nothing special is shown in the terminal. However, it turns out that the string HELLO THERE is printed.
