Package: molly-guard
Version: 0.4.5-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
molly-guard will not work when using the optional `warning message' for
shutdown(8) that contains ``special'' charakters like ticks:
# shutdown -h +20 "we'll pull the power cord soon"
eval: 1: Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
#
A patch to make this work could look like [1]. We replace any `"' in the input
by `\"', after working around the broken `echo'. Each $arg can then safely get
enclosed by `""' and put into $CMDARGS.
Cheers,
Julius
