Descrición

In trisquel 6, if you used rm without arguments, it would ask you to confirm.
Trisquel 7 does not.

Add this to .bashrc:
alias rm='rm -i'

Then restart your shell/terminal.

This should be set to the default, on a base install.

No no no no no no no no no no please don't bring it back. Please please please please. I'm glad it doesn't ask. That. Was. So. Annoying.

I agree, this should not be the default behavior. Instead we should discourage people from running commands that they do not fully understand the implications of.

It's gone? I still have that same annoying alias.

I think if you installed from a pre-release version, you might still have it.

Well, I didn't, so that doesn't explain it.

Maybe one of the packages I installed created the alias. I do recall the alias not being there when I first installed.

The package that creates the alias is trisquel-base-data in /etc/bash_completion.d/aliases .
The alias should probably be removed from there.

And this is still happening on Trisquel 7.
