Package: dash
Version: 0.5.5.1-7
Using the "local" command to do variable assignment should not do word
splitting. The following script shows how a Dash function incorrectly
handles an argument with a space in it.
#! /bin/dash
show_buggy_word_splitting() {
local d=$1
if [ "$d" = "two words" ]; then
echo Success
return 0
else
echo Failure
return 1
fi
}
show_buggy_word_splitting "two words"
