Please test. This goes hand-in-hand with the bash package (see other sign off)
/etc/profile was also largely revamped. Please comment on that if you'd like to, we can always add more stuff before it's out of testing.
Negative on the signoff. When I upgraded (bash and filesystem at the same time), I never got the new /etc/profile (I had customized my old one, I'm guessing that makes a difference). In addition, /etc/profile is not in either the bash backup array OR the filesystem backup array, and /etc/profile.bash is also not in the array.
OK, couple of things here. * etc/profile IS backed up in the filesystem package. profile.bash was not, so thanks for that. I think we may have hit a pacman issue here - there is special handling to handle the case of a file changing hands (profile moved from bash to filesystem), but i think this may collide with the backup handling. lemme see if I can throw a pactest at this. * I will rebuild filesystem containing a fix for fs#6350 later, and additionally rebuild bash for patch level 033 (up from 025 - their servers were down for a bit, I had to scp patch sources around to build). Any other issues to fix while I'm at it? Dan, could you weigh in on the profile thing? If this is a pacman issue, what do we do?
