Package: bash
Version: 3.2-4
Severity: normal

Hello,

on sarge we used in our script:
$ SHARE='\\sambaserver\public';SHARE_NAME=${SHARE//\\\\//};echo $SHARE_NAME
//sambaserver/public

The same line on lenny results in:
/sambaserver\public

To get the same result we have to remove two \\ in the Parameter Expansion:

$ SHARE='\\sambaserver\public';SHARE_NAME=${SHARE//\\//};echo $SHARE_NAME
//sambaserver/public

Because scripts break with this different behaviour I report this.
