Indeed, that is the first problem, netfile should be quoted here. local proto=$(echo "$netfile" | sed 's|://.*||') But once this is fixed, we run into a second problem, with another sed command, which breaks because of all the & in the url. local dlcmd=$(echo "$dlagent" | sed "s|%o|$file.part|" | sed "s|%u|$netfile|" $ netfile="ab&cd&ef"; echo "%u" | sed "s|%u|$netfile|" ab%ucd%uef $ netfile="ab\&cd\&ef"; echo "%u" | sed "s|%u|$netfile|" ab&cd&ef So I don't see how to fix this except manually escaping all & in the url... _______________________________________________ pacman-dev mailing list [email protected] http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/pacman-dev
