Package: x2goclient Version: 4.0.5.0 Tags: patch
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1256799
Description of problem: After upgrading x2goclient my system assigned shell of /bin/zsh is ignored and forcefully set to /bin/bash
The shift to running everything under /bin/bash had the side effect of setting SHELL to /bin/bash, which is then what terminal emulators and others use for spawning shells.
If we specify -l to bash it runs as a login shell, sources the proper startup files and sets SHELL to whatever getpwent() returns for the login shell.
However, this also opens the door for things like ~/.bash_logout to get run which executes "clear", which emits:
TERM environment variable not set.
when TERM is empty as it is here. So we also set TERM=dumb to work around that.
It might be nice to add the ability to distinguish between a session startup command and other utility commands (x2gomountdirs, etc.) and only add -l to the session startup commands. This is probably more appropriate.
