** Description changed: * Impact The cronjob included in the package errors out due to incorrect shell syntax * Testcase $ sudo /etc/cron.daily/ocsinventory-agent - triggered manually or by crong should work without error + triggered manually or by cron should work without error * Regression potential The job depends on bash now and wouldn't work on system without that shell installed. It's unlikely that bash isn't going to be installed though and even in that case it wouldn't be a regression since the script is already not working --------------------------------- Ubuntu 22.04 comes with ocsinventory-agent in version 2:2.8-2. In this version /etc/cron.daily/ocsinventory-agent holds the `$RANDOM` bashism. As `/bin/sh` links to `dash` by default the script exits with an error: ``` $ dash /etc/cron.daily/ocsinventory-agent /etc/cron.daily/ocsinventory-agent: 19: arithmetic expression: expecting primary: " /100 " ``` There is also an older debian bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=988245
