As mentioned earlier, the locations mentioned by sea are the most likely places to have caused problems with the command line prompt.

If you accidently put a space immediately after "/usr/lib", all bets are off. I did something like that once when I tried to clean /tmp as root and put a space between / and the word tmp... That's the day I learned to really appreciated backups!

So, the problem is still the same?
And by that i mean, the ONLY failrue you reported, is that you see BASH-4.2 rather than USER@HOST, which is 99% a failure (bad syntax) of PS1
