I think your problem is more likely due to some options or commands in your bashrc and profile files. If you really believe another program is to blame, I would rather investigate programs which interact with your desktop session more closely (e.g. your terminal emulator, your desktop's session manager, some faulty cron job, a bug in some script, ... I can keep going), rather than point fingers at systemd. If I were you, I would check some of the following: 1. Do you use any kind of history manipulation commands in your rc or profile files (e.g. any commands like `history <options>`)? 2. Do you have any history related environment variable set to some undefined value (could be a typo, a change in compatibility between versions, or some other reason)? 3. Do you have anything in your prompt related variables that could be misbehaving (e.g. PS1, PROMPT_COMMAND, etc)? 4. Do you have some stray old rc file messing up the settings? 5. Could there be some rc files from some other compatible shell interfering with your bash instance? When the problem occurs again, I would also check for the last modification time and size of your history file to confirm the observation. > Franta Hope the pointers above help. -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
