Bug Description
Binary package hint: bash
The 'alert' alias is currently defined in a skeleton template:
/etc/skel/.bashrc
which is copied to users' home directories when the user is created. It would good over time to be able to upgrade and improve the alias, but this is hard because it's a template, rather than something that is sourced or executed as a separate script.
Ideally a degree of separation would allow the alias to be upgraded in newer versions.
