I'm hoping there's a simple fix for this ... or I'm just doing it wrong. When I setup an auxiliary account using system reconfigure, I forgot to set the shell to zsh. As expected it set the shell to bash. To fix the problem, I went back into my config.scm and added the line:
(
[file-append](https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/guix.html#index-file_002dappend)
zsh
"/bin/zsh"
)
Now, the shell is /bin/zsh (as determined by echo $SHELL and looking at /etc/passwd) but the login shell is still bash (as determined by echo $0). The problem with this is that none of the zsh shell login scripts run. At this point it would be a bit "problematic" to delete the account and recreate it.
Why is the login shell still bash and more importantly, how do I change it to zsh?
Thanks,
Mike
