I don't really understand what's going on on the bash side here. Some experiments revealed that it actually boils down to the "-f". So my aliases file is included as: source ~/.mutt/aliases Assuming that the right part goes to $file I can see that test -f fails even though the file is present: $ test -f "~/.mutt/aliases"; echo $? 1 $ This in turn is due to the fact that the ~ is not expanded. Not quoting $file would solve this but it would probably lead to other problems. (On the other hand it is used unquoted a few lines later.) Well at least you have a test case now. :-) Helmut -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
