Whoever wrote this shell script does not know what they're doing. You've uncovered 2 bugs in it already. There are probably a few hundred more. As a workaround, because you do not have direct access to the script (apparently it's in the downloaded payload), you may have to change your /bin/sh symlink to point to bash instead of dash. You may either leave it there, or change it back, after this is done. I would give serious consideration to finding a non-broken alternative to whatever this thing is, except there probably isn't any alternative, and you're stuck with it.
