Bug Summary

OS: Linux Manjaro

When using PHP 8.1, when I click “Open site shell”, it opens the terminal as expected, but throws an error at shell startup. If I change to PHP 7.4, it works.

Setting Local environment variables...

Essentially, Bash is broken on that session because of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH override:

➜  public ldd /bin/bash                                                                                                                                                                                                    
/bin/bash: symbol lookup error: /bin/bash: undefined symbol: rl_trim_arg_from_keyseq

➜  public LD_LIBRARY_PATH='' ldd /usr/bin/bash

By searching for “LD_LIBRARY_PATH” on Local directory, I can see that it overrides it at siteShellStartupPOSIX.

If I change the site PHP version from 8.1 to 7.4, it works.

Thank you @genepine and @Lucas

Our team has a bug filed to look into this further. We don’t have any ETA to provide on when this will be resolved so for now if you’re able to workaround with an older PHP version that will be the way to go.
