The bash command line is an interactive shell, it reads different
startup fines than one started as a non-interactive shell with the
name `sh` as Geany does.  It sounds like something is set up in your
profile or other startup read in an interactive shell that is not set
up in a startup read in a non-interactive shell.

See https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bash.html#Bash-Startup-Files
