Fex. emerge zsh and it will load /etc/profile, but the /etc/profile specifies the prompt in a bash only way, and thus there is a conflict and zsh will have a real ugly prompt. the solution would be to move the prompt to a shell-dependant if /then/else statement, or to a bash-only-loaded configuration.
Issue should be fixed before 1.0 is released... stealing bug... feel free to steal back if you were already working on a solution
Should be fixed on CVS. Developers using zsh please get /etc/profile from gentoo-src and let me know.
where in gentoo-src is this located? I'm unable to find it, and the current version in baselayout still breaks zsh root@Darkmere spider # zsh \[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h \[\033[01;34m\]\W \$ \[\033[00m\] \[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h \[\033[01;34m\]\W \$ \[\033[00m\]qpkg -f /etc/profile sys-apps/baselayout-1.7.4-r2 * sys-apps/baselayout-1.7.6 *
Fixed from baselayout-1.7.8.
