I use often the value of LINEO in order to know where to look for issues in a script. Recently I discovered a bug.Please consider the following 6 line script: ------------------------------------------------ #!/bin/bash if ((1)); then ( : ) ; echo 1 $LINENO fi echo 2 $LINENO ------------------------------------------------ if executed it should print: 1 4 2 6 And indeed that's the output if I run it on openSUSE Leap 15.5 (bash 4.4). However if I execute it on openSUSE tumbleweed (bash 5.2) the output is: 1 4 2 5
I can't reproduce this. I get the correct (bash-4.4) results on bash-5.1
and bash-5.2. There does seem to be a problem with bash-5.0, but it was
corrected in bash-5.1, according to my results.
This is the case for both of your example scripts.
