FYI 9a10acc fixes a bug when running a non-interactive SSH session to a
GuixSD machine (running lshd), as in:
ssh localhost uname
Before, this would result in “command not found” because $PATH would be
left uninitialized. Now there’s a ha^W special trick in the .bashrc
skeleton to handle this use case:
if [ -n "$SSH_CLIENT" -a -z "`type -P cat`" ]
then
# We are being invoked from a non-interactive SSH session
# (as in "ssh host command") but 'cat' cannot be found
# in $PATH. Source /etc/profile so we get $PATH and other
# essential variables.
source /etc/profile
fi
You may want to copy this to your ~/.bashrc.
