Problem with xterm-301-1


Hi,

After updating from 291-1 to 301-1 xterm starts /bin/sh instead of
my shell specified in /etc/passwd or in the SHELL environment variable.

The workaround I have found is to create /etc/shells with a list of
permitted shells, e.g.

/bin/ash
/bin/bash
/bin/dash
/bin/sh
/bin/tcsh
/bin/zsh

Regards,
Ola Strömfors
