Description Bit Twister 2013-02-09 20:08:42 CET 
Description of problem:

UserPath and SystemPath should be removed so defaults become the norm. The defaults closely match /etc/login.defs and /root/.bashrc.

That would place the /usr/local in front to match the other definitions.
 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
$ grep -i path= /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
UserPath=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin/
SystemPath=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

# grep -i path= /etc/login.defs 
ENV_SUPATH      PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin
ENV_PATH        PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin

# grep -i path= /root/.bashrc
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin

Comment 1 Luc Menut 2013-02-10 23:48:10 CET 
It's already fixed, UserPath and SystemPath use the same path as /etc/login.defs since mageia-kde4-config-3-0.20130206.1.mga3.
http://svnweb.mageia.org/soft?view=revision&revision=7269

As kdmrc is a config file, you will have to merge manually these changes (we can't force the change because some users can have personalized theses paths).

Luc

I understand. In that case, /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc.rpmnew should be created so the user can decide what to change when a new kdmrc is released.

Status: RESOLVED => REOPENED
Resolution: FIXED => (none)
