Hi Folks,

Just minor thing, but on other systems I use, when you open subsequent
Gnome Terminal tabs, the current working directory is maintained in the
new tab. On my Guix System, new tabs start up back at /home/ben.

Very low priority of course.

Regards,
Ben

I've found that sourcing vte.sh fixes the issue, and the working
directory is retained:

`source /gnu/store/...-vte-0.52.2/etc/profile.d/vte.sh`

I've tested in a `guix system vm` to make sure it wasn't related to
my .bashrc and it's not. It's exactly the same aside from that the Gnome
details open a new terminal window, not a tab.

Interesting.  Is this file installed to /etc/profile.d/vte.sh on other
systems?  Or is it otherwise sourced?

I can only speak for my own system. I don't have gnome-terminal
installed, but I do have tilda which uses vte. My
~/.guix-profile/etc/profile.d/ only has bash_completion.sh.

I wonder if it's just a matter of moving vte to the propagated-inputs of
gnome-terminal (and other packages like tilda)? I'll try now and report
back.

Ben

Ok, moving vte to propagated-inputs for gnome-terminal makes
~/.guix-profile/etc/profile.d/vte.sh show up if installed with `guix
package` and /etc/profile.d/vte.sh show up if installed with `guix system`.

Neither ~/.guix-profile/etc/profile or /etc/profile source their
respective profile.d files though like Trisquel does. Can someone give
me a lead on how these profiles are generated?

Regards,
Ben

Whoops, I got that mixed up - `guix system` does NOT create
/etc/profile.d/vte.sh after the move to propagated-inputs.
