What I tried to say is that by adding a custom /etc/profile.d/ script,
you are overriding the default setup for bash, and therefore it would not be
that weird to alter also /etc/profile. I never implied that by adding
the former one would be forced to alter the latter.

I see what you mean. It looks a much simpler solution to swap those lines.
I'll check it doesn't (unexpectedly) break anything else and add it for the=

next release.

Thanks.
