Package: abcde
Version: 2.3.2-1
Severity: important
Running the latest 'abcde' on my system shows:
% abcde ; echo $?
/usr/bin/abcde: 627: Syntax error: Bad substitution
2
...checking the code shows a bashism:
%cat -n /usr/bin/abcde | grep " 627"
627 IN=${!TEMPARG}
...which won't work for users who have their scripting shell set to a
more strictly POSIX shell like 'ash' or 'dash'.
'abcde' should run on any system with 'bash' if invoked with:
% bash /usr/bin/abcde
To fix, either any bashisms should be replaced with standard Bourne
Shell code, or the first line of 'abcde' should be be changed from:
#!/bin/sh
...to:
#!/bin/bash
Hope this helps...
