Title:
bash man page has a typo, repeating .bashrc when one should be
/etc/bash.bashrc
Status in bash package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The INVOCATION section of the man page has the text
"reads and executes commands from ~/.bashrc and ~/.bashrc, if these
files exist and are readable"
which repeats "~/.bashrc". By experiment, I find it probable that the
first of these .bashrc references should read "/etc/bash.bashrc".
