Description
Hi there! Thanks for this project!
For the past little while I've been having some issues with my computers login screen. After putting it off for far to long (read months...) I did some digging and believe it was caused by installing this package.
I'm running a Debian system, and if I follow the installation instructions:
pip3 install awsume
awsume-configure
I found the following is added to my ~/.profile
:
#AWSume alias to source the AWSume script
alias awsume="source awsume"
#Auto-Complete function for AWSume
_awsume() {
local cur prev opts
COMPREPLY=() #### <---- this line is causing errors
cur="${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}"
prev="${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD-1]}"
opts=$(awsume-autocomplete)
COMPREPLY=( $(compgen -W "${opts}" -- ${cur}) )
return 0
}
complete -F _awsume awsume
Now from what I can see in the source code, this is exactly as we're intending when running this command. However I believe this is using a non-posix feature, and at least in Debian ~/.profile
is executed using sh
which was causing my login screen to fail.
Apr 21 21:52:37 computer /usr/libexec/gdm-x-session[50583]: /etc/gdm3/Xsession: 35: /home/georift/.profile: Syntax error: "(" unexpected (expecting "}")
Here is at least one related issue that the rust community fixed suggesting it might be worth keeping ~/.profile
posix compliant.
And finally here's a quick debian repro:
docker run --rm debian:buster-slim /bin/bash -c "sh ~/.profile && apt update && apt install -y python3 python3-pip && pip3 install awsume && awsume-configure && sh ~/.profile"
