Package: bash
Version: 4.1-3
Severity: normal
This command works:
duplicity full -vinfo --dry-run --no-encryption --include /etc/resolv.conf
--exclude '**' /etc/ file:///tmp/
but when quoting is used to store the exclude option inside a
variable, the variable does not render properly. There are several
syntactically correct ways to do this, but bash fails to handle all of
them:
options="--exclude '**'"
options="--exclude '"\*\*\'
options=--exclude\ \'\*\*\'
options="--exclude **"
options="--exclude \'**\'"
duplicity full -vinfo --dry-run --no-encryption --include /etc/resolv.conf
${options} /etc/ file:///tmp/
