Package: debconf
Version: 1.4.70
Severity: important
I'm using /bin/zsh as /bin/sh.
Whereas the old code:
,---- [ /usr/share/debconf/confmodule before 1.4.70 ]
| # Only do this once.
| if [ -z "$DEBCONF_REDIR" ]; then
| # Redirect standard output to standard error. This prevents common
| # mistakes by making all the output of the postinst or whatever
| # script is using this library not be parsed as confmodule commands.
| #
| # To actually send something to standard output, send it to fd 3.
| exec 3>&1 1>&2
| DEBCONF_REDIR=1
| export DEBCONF_REDIR
| fi
`----
worked as expected the new code fails:
,---- [/usr/share/debconf/confmodule 1.4.70 ]
| # Only do this once.
| if [ -z "$DEBCONF_REDIR" ]; then
| # Redirect standard output to standard error. This prevents common
| # mistakes by making all the output of the postinst or whatever
| # script is using this library not be parsed as confmodule commands.
| #
| # To actually send something to standard output, send it to fd 3.
| exec 3>&1
| if [ "$DEBCONF_USE_CDEBCONF" ]; then
| exec 1>&5
| else
| exec 1>&2
| fi
| DEBCONF_REDIR=1
| export DEBCONF_REDIR
| fi
`----
Example:
# /usr/share/debconf/frontend /var/lib/dpkg/info/apmd.postinst configure ||
echo problem
problem
This causes every package using '. /usr/share/debconf/confmodule' in
maintainer scripts failing install/upgrade.
If I add an 'echo' before the 'exec 1>&2'-line it works.
It also works if I remove the "$DEBCONF_USE_CDEBCONF"-code.
