Problem in virtualenvwrapper
I've had some issues with virtualenvwrapper. Whenever I start up a new shell, the shell hangs when virtualenvwrapper is installed. I debugged this by putting a "set -x" at the top of "virtualenvwrapper.sh". "virtualenvwrapper.sh" is sourced from ".bashrc". Anyway, the debug information pointed the finger at line 193 of "virtualenvwrapper.sh"
fi trap "rm '$file' >/dev/null 2>&1" EXIT echo $file
It hangs on the "rm" command as my "rm" command is aliased to "rm -i". I am not sure what the right thing to is. For now I have just set
fi trap "\rm '$file' >/dev/null 2>&1" EXIT echo $file
which deals with the issue. Is the problem with "virtualenvwrapper.sh" because it is assuming that "rm" is the default version or should my aliases come last in the .bashrc file because commands should be the default during the execution of the "rc" type files?
