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. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17.13 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages bc depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.5-3 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline5 5.1-7 GNU readline and history libraries bc recommends no packages. -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
