Package: dash Version: 0.5.2-4 Severity: normal
The following three commands work as expected: 2>/tmp/x echo echo 2>/tmp/x echo 12>/tmp/x However, this doesn't: 12>/tmp/x echo sh: 12: not found It seems that dash has problems with redirections at the beginning of a command, but only when the fd is >= 10, smaller fd's seem to work fine. I *think* this is a bug, but couldn't quite prove it (chapter 2 of susv3 is a mess...). However, bash seems to have no problems with it, so it seems it would be sane behaviour to allow this redirection. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (700, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.11-rc2 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages dash depends on: hi libc6 2.3.2.ds1-21 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an -- debconf information: * dash/sh: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
