libtool-1.3.4_4 and bash settings

Hi

Am pretty new to FreeBSD and after installing it and trying to configure some options, have run into a few problems and was wondering if somone could point me in the right direction.

While trying to install wget i got an error while it was trying to install the library libtool-1.3.4_4



I have looked around but have not been able to get a solution for this problem


Also i have installed bash and set up the .bash_profile with this code


PS1="[\u@\h:\w] "
case `id -u` in
0) PS1="${PS1}# ";;
*) PS1="${PS1}$ ";;
esac


this works fine on the current user but if i add a new user they get the prompt bash rather than the formatted outlook and the onyl way to change that is cp a .bash_profile from an existing user. Is there a way to make this automatic when a new user is added they get the formatted bash prompt?

I have a shell account and in my home dir there is no .profile or .bash_profile etc settings is this set up globally then for every user?

thanks in advance

For the first question about libtool, are you using the latest ports or what? I have a laptop that I'm going to cvsup to FreeBSD 4.8 soon, so I'll see if I can reproduce the problem.

Copy .bash_profile to /etc/skel/. Every time you add a user using adduser, the files from this directory will get copied to the user's new home directory.

Hope this helps

thanks for your reply Scorpions4ever

I had installed FreeBSD 5. after doing a bit of reading i thought it best to revert back to 4.7 stable. I just installed that and everything seems to be working fine.

and thanks for the second point

much appreciated.
