• Bug#968910: sway: Logging in doesn't run ~/.profile

    From William R Sowerbutts@21:1/5 to flavioamieiro@gmail.com on Thu Aug 8 17:50:02 2024
    I wanted to comment that I face exactly the same problem and Flavio's patch
    is the only way I have found to fix this properly ie have one .profile that
    is shared across various login types.

    Thanks

    Will
