I've got a weird problem with slackware-current that I'm trying to sort out which I'm hoping someone can shed some light on. Whenever I edit /etc/profile it doesn't actually do anything. Nothing is updated. The only way I've actually been able to update my PATH is to create a .bash_profile in my home directory which I don't really want to do. I like to have everything running from /etc/profile so it's system wide (apart from the root PATH obviously).
