Bash Version: 4.2
Patch Level: 46
Release Status: release
Description:
If I declare a global read-only variable and I try to declare a local
variable with that name, I can not create
the local variable.
I expect that local variables can be declared independently for the
global variables.
Repeat-By:
$ declare -r var=55
$ myfunction() {
> local var=11
> echo "\$var=$var"
> return 0
> }
$ myfunction
bash: local: var: readonly variable
$var=55
