Bug Description
Binary package hint: bash
/etc/skel/.bashrc says:
# don't put duplicate lines in the history. See bash(1) for more options
export HISTCONTROL=
# ... and ignore same sucessive entries.
export HISTCONTROL=
..but "... and ignore same sucessive entries." for "ignoreboth" is wrong, at least when comparing to bash(1), which says:
HISTCONTROL
[...] If the list of values
So, the comment for "ignoreboth" should really say "# ... and ignore entries starting with a space."
