Package: posh Version: 0.5.7 Severity: normal I'm in the process of implementing assignment/conditional operator support in dash. I noticed that posh/pdksh has an anomaly with the conditional operator in that both arguments seem to be evaluated. POSIX defers to ISO C on this which forbids the evaluation of both operators.
For example, $ posh -c 'echo $((0 ? x = 3 : 4)); echo $x' 4 3 $ bash -c 'echo $((0 ? x = 3 : 4)); echo $x' 4 $ Putting brackets around x = 3 seems to fix it so this could be a parse error.
