Heh. I honestly don't even remember sending those mails. I do remember
the issue (ie. the fact that Ubuntu does compinit in the global zshrc),
but I thought my reaction had matched my reaction right now.


For the record, let it be known that the statement from my previous mail
in *this* thread is indeed my actual position in the matter. And it has
been for a while. I'm sure there is evidence of that in threads of other
bug reports that would show that.

Today I wouldn't take that code snippet from my own mail to enter our
setup. It's the wrong thing to do. I think they still do that in Ubuntu,
which is another reason why "setopt no_global_rcs" is part of my
personal zsh setup in my "~/.zshenv" file.
