Indeed. However, it would be good to check if ~/.bashrc exists.
Section 6.2 of the Bash manual suggests this:
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then . ~/.bashrc; fi

I agree with 宋文武 that the PS1 setting belongs in the default
~/.bashrc skeleton. I would prefer to keep settings like this, that are
purely a matter of personal taste, out of system-wide files. Also,
/etc/profile is read by other shells, and I don't know that the syntax
above is portable.

Mark
