[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1721719] Re: gvfs-info bashism
You are right, the bug is fixed upstream. I have manually downloaded
gvfs-bin_1.34.1-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb and checked the file: it includes the
fix.
However it is not fixed on my computer. And I do not know why.
Unfortunately I have not found the package in /var/cache/apt/archives,
then I am not sure if the .deb installed on my computer is the same.
I have never tampered with my installation. This is a fresh install of
Artful Beta1 updated once a day with "apt dist-upgrade". I dont know
what has happened.
Regarding the use of "$@:2", there is no error displayed because:
1. "$@:2" is valid syntax in both shells, but it is clearly a bug
because it is expanded to "$1" "$2" ... ":2", which does not make sense.
I think that in bash it should have been "${@:2}" (2 is an offset),
while in dash the syntax is not supported and you should use "shift"
instead. You can check it by running:
$ echo 'echo "$@:2"; echo "${@:2}"' | bash -s foo bar
foo bar:2
bar
$ echo 'echo "$@:2"; echo "${@:2}"' | dash -s foo bar
foo bar:2
dash: 1: Bad substitution
2. "gio help info" discards all parameters after "info", then for
example "gio help info :2" is equivalent to "gio help info".
In short: I think you can safely remove "$@:2".
