Package: randomize-lines
Version: 0.2.3
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/rl
I would expect the following to generate an error message and exit with
status 1 (shell convention for an error):
rl .newsrc > /dev/full; echo $?
Instead, rl blithely ignores all the write errors on stdout and exits with
status 0:
$ rl .newsrc > /dev/full; echo $?
0
Of course this makes it difficult to reliably use rl in a shell script where
write errors (e.g. disk full) might occur.
A workaround is to use the 'cat' program in a pipe:
$ rl .newsrc | cat > /dev/full; echo $?
cat: write error: No space left on device
1
however this workaround doesn't cope with read failures on .newsrc, and the
shell code which does cope with that case isn't trivial.
The real fix is to simply check for (and report) errors on read and write
system calls within rl itself.
