System name: Take your pick
Type and version: All platforms
Display type: Most likely color
What were you trying to do?
Login with some bad dotfiles.
What's wrong:
It didn't remove my tokens before it gave up and logged me out.
What should have happened:
It should have removed my tokens.
Are you making this scenario up?
Yes.
Why?
Because you can tell this would be a problem by reading
the script itself. The script should be changed to print
its error message and fall through to a single deauthentication
fragment, rather than having two that someone forgets to
update both of.
Oh, there are actually three.
[Remember that there are scripts per-platform (or at least
per-Sun and not-Sun) to be changed.]
