Description Graham Perrin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2021-05-25 14:38:32 UTC 
Spun off from <https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/80286/>: 

1. create a new profile

2. set its command to /bin/sh

3. open a new tab using the profile

> Warning: Could not find an interactive shell to start.

### Workaround

4. edit the profile to use sh (without specifying a path)

Comment 1 Adriaan de Groot freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2021-06-01 21:13:59 UTC 
Somewhat peculiar: if I enter
 /bin/tcsh
 /bin/csh
 /usr/local/bin/bash
as command, all of those are fine. It's only /bin/sh that triggers this. And more strangely yet, /bin/sh is explicitly listed as the most-fallback-iest of shells.

Thank you, 

(In reply to Adriaan de Groot from comment #1)

> … only /bin/sh that triggers this …

Should we treat this bug 256151 as a duplicate of the earlier KDE bug? 

(Sorry, I should have searched there before opening a bug here.)

My installation was fixed with a 2021-05-30 patch from tcberner@ 

Following my confirmation of success (2021-05-31) with the patch, in IRC: 

> ok, I'll commit it, thanks for testing
