Hello,

I think there is a bug in "join" :

join --version
join (GNU textutils) 1.22

uname -a
Linux saison.lifl.fr 2.2.5-15 #1 Mon Apr 19 23:00:46 EDT 1999 i686 unknown


The problem is that when there is a space at the end
a line of the file -2, join inserts a new separator at the
end of the line produced.

For exemple
---------------
cat a
1:2:3
---------------
cat b
5:2:7 
6:2:8
---------------
join -t ':' -1 2 -2 2 a b
2:1:3:5:7 :
2:1:3:6:8
---------------

Best regards
