Hi all, i just ran into the same bug and it's a bug in bash (#1078556), you can check with:
root@trixie:/# sh -c 'printf "%f\n" 3' 3.000000 root@trixie:/# bash -c 'printf "%f\n" 3' 0.000000 root@trixie:/# /usr/bin/printf "%f\n" 3 3.000000 The /usr/bin/printf is the coreutils-version, which is not affected. Thank's to @sur5r for figuring this out. -- With kind regards Andreas Steinel M.Sc. Visual Computing M.Sc. Informatik
