Subject: dash: read does not ignore trailing spaces
Date: Wed, 2 Dec 2015 23:37:17 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <n3nrqu$mj2$1@ger.gmane.org> (raw)
Hello,
I am forwarding a bug [1] reported by a Debian user: `read` does not
ignore trailing spaces. The current version of dash is affected by
this bug.
A simple test from the original reporter:
$ dash -c 'echo " a b " | { read v ; echo "<$v>" ; }'
<a b >
$ bash -c 'echo " a b " | { read v ; echo "<$v>" ; }'
<a b>
Other shells like posh and mksh behave like bash.
This error is reproducible with dash 0.5.7 and with the current master
git master branch, commit 2e5842258bd5b252ffdaa630db09c9a19a9717ca.
