ACK. I confirmed that our only use of awk was for the simple script
'{print $1}', so this patch is a good quick fix.
But down the road, I would welcome a patch to simplify
iptablesLinkIPTablesBaseChain() to avoid gawk altogether. Right now, we
are using gawk to split out the first field of $($IPT -L $chain -n
--line-number | grep " $chain "); but the shell is already sufficient to
split out a whitespace separated field. That is, instead of:
r=$(echo $res | $awk '{print $1}')
if [ "${r}" != "$pos" ]; then
we could use:
set dummy $res
r=$2
if [ "$r" != "$pos" ]; then
provided that we audit that the rest of our generated shell script
output doesn't care that we overwrote positional arguments with set.
