Package: bc
Version: 1.06-19
Severity: normal
scale is not always evaluated it seems:
$ echo "scale=0; 10 * 2.1" | bc
21.0
$ echo "scale=0; ( 10 * 2.1 ) / 1" | bc
21
Shouldn't that yield '21' twice?
I don't quite see a reason for the current behaviour, nor
could a quick look into the docs reveal anything related.
