I feared that might be the reason; indeed static analysis would yield better code coverage in this case, but it does not help me with cleaning up the tracker! :P Anyhow, opened a bug for the shell parser that I will use as blocker for bugs depending on said shell parser. Hopefully, someone will get tried of that bug and fix it and this one along with it. :D ~Niels -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
