Title:
xargs gives "[: err: unexpected operator" on Ubuntu but not Centos
Status in findutils package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
cd /tmp
rm -Rf tst err
echo 'if [ "$1" == "" ]; then echo "empty"; else cat $1; fi' > tst
chmod +x tst
echo "a" > err
ls err | xargs ./tst # ./tst: 1: [: err: unexpected operator
./tst err # works fine, outputs 'a'
On Ubuntu the error will be shown, on Centos it won't. The error looks
to be incorrect.

Release: 18.04
$ xargs --version
xargs (GNU findutils) 4.7.0-git
