Bash Version: 3.0 Patch Level: 16 Release Status: release Description: Bash 3.1.16 doesn't seem to close named pipes properly. I've reported this on the gentoo bugs list as bug 133635. The version reported above is ok. Repeat-By: Test script: #!/bin/bash myfifo=/tmp/pipetest-fifo-$$ rm -f $myfifo mkfifo $myfifo cat <$myfifo & catpid=$! exec 55>$myfifo echo "Fred" >&55 echo "woz" >&55 echo "ere" >&55 exec 55>&- wait $catpid Running the test script in bash 3.1.16 hangs after printing "ere". Bash 2.05x and 3.0.x terminate normally. _______________________________________________ Bug-bash mailing list Bug-bash@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-bash
