Details

Description:

The bash package is built to use /etc/bash.bashrc as system-wide bashrc, and /etc/bash.bash_logout as system-wide bash_logout, but the bash(1) man page does not reflect this configuration at all.

Additional info:
* package version: bash 4.2.010-1


Steps to reproduce:
man bash | grep -E 'bash\.bash(rc|_logout)' # nothing
This task depends upon

I will not be adjusting the man page. Upstream may consider a request for the man page to be adjusted base on compile time options, but I would get my hopes up...

Probably best to document the behavior in the wiki.
