Hi all,
I've started experimentally packaging BusyBox 1.35.0 for Debian, and
found that the "awk printf('%c') can output NUL" test kept failing. It
turns out that scripts/shell.c cannot output a NUL for the "\0" in the
test string, thus breaking this test.
I had a quick look at scripts/shell.c but I couldn't work out how to fix
it, so I think that's best left for someone else.
Instead, the workaround I found was to change the shebang for
testsuite/awk.tests to "#!/usr/bin/env ash" and add an "unset ECHO" on
the next line. That uses the newly built busybox ash to run those tests,
and this can handle "echo -ne" unlike dash (the Debian Almquist Shell)
which is used for /bin/sh.
Best regards,
Chris
