Description Ivan Zakharyaschev 2008-02-22 01:55:19 MSK 
Eterm-0.9.3-alt2

This was discovered in https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14606 .

Probably, starting a login shell is not good: the shell might re-run per-session
setup and start some duplicate "services" (e.g., ssh-agent, if they are not
clever enough); the per-session setup should be done by the X session startup
scripts.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. start Eterm
2. $ shopt login_shell
login_shell     on
$ 
3.


Expected Results:  
In other terminals the shell is non-login (as can be seen from 14606). E.g., in
aterm:

$ shopt login_shell
login_shell     off
$
