Title:
  man page names the same file twice -- are there really 2?

Status in bash package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in bash package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  In the bash(1) man page, INVOCATION section, second-to-last paragraph (begins with "Bash attempts to determine"), it says, in part:
     "it reads and executes commands from ~/.bashrc and ~/.bashrc,"
  naming the same file twice.  I suspect there's a file in /etc that gets read, but in any event the duplication should be either removed or corrected.q
