User logged in via ssh seems to have incorrect paths

[anevilyak]

If I log into Haiku via ssh, the environment I get is very different from what I get on a local Terminal.

Specifically, the PATH that's set up is: "/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/boot/home/config/bin"

Whereas from Haiku's Terminal directly I get: ".:/boot/home/config/bin:/boot/common/bin:/bin:/boot/apps:/boot/preferences:/boot/beos/apps:/boot/beos/preferences:/boot/develop/tools/gnupro/bin"

This might be fixed with a simple build time setting: ​http://lists.mindrot.org/pipermail/openssh-unix-dev/2010-April/028490.html I'll give it a try on the next openssh update.

[scottmc]

first pass at fixing the directory issues with openssh, this patch add new builds of openssh, openssl and some libs that depend on openssl.

[scottmc]

I've attached a patch that added the newly released openssl-1.0.0 to haiku, and also a handful of packages that depend on openssl that needed to be rebuilt, including openssh. Attaching this here as I'm also trying to fix this ticket with the new openssh builds. Please test and provide some feedback. I have moved the location of some of openssh's files, so if they don't seem to be in the right place let me know where they should go. This is just a first pass, note all of these packages are hosted on BeDrivers.com for now.

[stippi]

Can you please outline the locations of files and your reasoning? I have no clue about OpenSSL and where stuff should go, so if you write "some files" I wouldn't know what to look for, but I am still interested to get a clue.

[scottmc]

Sure. Here's what's in the zip file, and how I configured the build. Note that it now puts the .ssh directory in /boot/home/config/settings/ssh instead of ~/home/.ssh

Oh, and here's the other piece of the puzzle, this is where the pathnames get set and things got sketchy for me: ​http://ports.haiku-files.org/browser/haikuports/trunk/net-misc/openssh/patches/pathnames-haiku.h These are hardcoded, eventually we'd like to get these to use find_directory. Note that I put HAIKU_ in place of BE_ for these defines.

Replying to scottmc:

I have a few comments:

1. "--sysconfdir" is used twice

2. Is /boot/common/etc deprecated? Should we use B_COMMON_SETTINGS_DIRECTORY (/boot/common/settings) now? The same situation is with /boot/common/share and B_COMMON_DATA_DIRECTORY (/boot/common/data).

3. pathnames-haiku.h contains different paths comparing to configure settings, something is wrong here

4. What path is preferred for manuals? I use /boot/common/share/man instead of /boot/common/man

[scottmc]

Not sure what we should have for --sysconfdir, I suspect it's B_COMMON_SETTINGS_DIRECTORY. Which paths did you see that were different between configure and pathnames-haiku.h? As for the preferred directory for man files? Perhaps B_TRASH_DIRECTORY ;)

[scottmc]

with HaikuPorts ​r701 I have moved the sshd keys to the common settings directory instead of common/etc.

New diff file attached, this also updated git to 1.7.0.5. This still needs to be tested.

[scottmc]

Updated patch, this one puts the sshd keys in common settings directory

[scottmc]

This might be fixed in hrev36326. Needs some testing.

[augiedoggie]

The problem is more than just the PATH variable. It is because Haiku uses SetupEnvironment and UserSetupEnvironment scripts to set up a large number of variables. IMO the solution would be to make a change near the top of /etc/profile with an addition such as:

[[ -z ${BE_C_COMPILER} ]] && source /boot/system/boot/SetupEnvironment

[bonefish]

Applied a similar patch from #5789 in hrev36536.
