BASH 2.05b.0(7)

[Randall R Schulz]

Peter,

I don't think this is a BASH issue, except possibly if your previous BASH 
was a version that used a different algorithm for choosing which startup 
scripts to execute. How long has Cygwin had the "/etc/profile.d/" 
directory? I thought it was recent, but I see references in the mailing 
list going back over a year.


On my system I see "kpsexpand" being invoked in 
"/etc/profile.d/lilypond-profile.sh", but of course you'd have to have 
lilypond installed to have that profile in place.

According to <http://cygwin.com/packages/> / 
<http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=kpsexpand>, it's supplied 
by the "tetex" package.

Once that package is installed, kpsexpand has a man page, but not one of 
its own. It's documented on the "kpsetool" man page. The "apropos" or "man 
-k" command is convenient for discovering this sort of thing.
