One must do the following. - Check current bash shell version with {{{ echo $BASH_VERSION }}} - Add /opt/local/bin/bash to /etc/shells - change default login shell {{{ chsh -s /opt/local/bin/bash }}} - Open a new shell and check $BASH_VERSION again -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/49487> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

#49487: bash: Please add notes for changing login shell --------------------------+---------------------- Reporter: code@… | Owner: raimue@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: bash | --------------------------+---------------------- Comment (by raimue@…): You are right, you need to configure your environment to use a different shell. You should be able to change that by editing your terminal settings. For example instructions see the [wiki:howto/bash- completion#Step3:UsebashfromMacPortsinyourterminal bash-completion HOWTO]. The advantage is that you usually do not need to edit system files in /etc/shells, which are not guaranteed to be preserved across system updates. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/49487#comment:2> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
