Bash Version: 4.3 Patch Level: 30 Release Status: release Description: According to the joint man page for '[' and 'test', '[ --version' and '[ --help' should give appropriate output, while 'test' should not. 'test' appears to behave correctly, but when running '[ --version' or '[ --help', the following error appers: bash: [: missing `]' It appears that whatever code is checking for syntax failed to take the two options that may be passed to '[' into account. Repeat-By: [ --help OUTPUT: bash: [: missing `]'
