Bash Version: 2.05b Patch Level: 0 Release Status: release Description: In an interactive shell I was writting a function. Then, I hit the tab key (I should have typed C-v tab) Bash exited immediately with this error message : malloc: ../bash/subst.c:5717: assertion botched free: start and end chunk sizes differ last command: sansblanc() { Stopping myself...Aborted Repeat-By: easy to reproduce : simply type in the following 2 lines, then hit the tab key : sansblanc() { eval "${1}=\"\$(echo \"\$$1\" | sed -e 's/^[ Fix: Teach users to type C-v tab when they don't need completion ;-) _______________________________________________ Bug-bash mailing list Bug-bash@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-bash
