Understand your frustration about useless fixes, but actually the reason for me
to fail this patch was that it does not work on bash on Tumbleweed:
Now testing on Debian and it's working.
Not sure what causes that as echo "\e[0;32mPASS\e[0m" run in bash is broken on
both (both distros have bash version 4.4.23(1)-release):
$ echo "\e[0;32mPASS\e[0m"
\e[0;32mPASS\e[0m
Kind regards,
Petr
