Hi,
My login shell is bash, so I tried to reproduce your report.
I'm not able to reproduce it, neither with my own account (logging
in with "ignore customizations"), nor with a test account.
I tried various combinations of "bash", "bash -l", "gnome-terminal",
"gnome-terminal -e bash -l", and "gnome-terminal -e bash".
Do you have reproduction instructions for the case where you log
in with "ignore customizations" ?
(I grant that my own dotfiles may be suspicious, because I've
customized them heavily.)
Regards,
-Jacob
