<PRE>Colin Guthrie a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> 'Twas brillig, and Michael Wood at 22/11/12 14:45 did gyre and gimble:
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Or if you happy to run rm as it was written and risk deleting something
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> you didn't want too, then comment out the alias (and any others that get
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> on your nerves:) ) from /etc/profile.d/60alias.sh
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> While it technically is a config file, it's also numeric which means
</I>&gt;<i> that one day, it *might* be renumbered for whatever need at the time.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> I therefore try to always avoid editing such files whenever possible.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Instead, I'd personally recommend creating your own file:
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> /etc/profile.d/999-fsck-the-defaults.sh
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> and in it just put:
</I>&gt;<i> alias rm=rm
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> or similar to &quot;undo&quot; the earlier changes.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Sure there is a tiny amount more to do at init, but it's pretty minimal
</I>&gt;<i> and you likely won't notice.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Col
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>
That's what I do too (creating a custom file) -- for various other 
commands.  That also ensures that it isn't overwritten by any updates.

For rm, I'd rather have confirmation.
(reminds me of the rm -f 127.0.0.1 joke)
