Hi. About the IFS "issue", i found an satisfactory explanation explanation for this here; http://forum.soft32.com/linux2/Bug-409179-DASH-Settings-IFS-work-properly-ftopict70039.html To sum it up, you should use
<CODE> IFS=' ' </CODE> instead, since the bash syntax isn't specified in POSIX. As for how and under what conditions are run, look here; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=438355 So, to sum it up, i *think* this bug should be marked as "INVALID". -- dash does not read IFS properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285651 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
