Package: bash
Version: 5.2-2+b1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
Since Bash 5.2, when both -e and -t options are used, read terminates the shell
session.
This can be tested as follow in a terminal:
> /usr/bin/bash
> echo $SHLVL
2
> read -e -t 1
> echo $SHLVL
1
or by executing this small script where any subsequent use of read -e is
rendered ineffective:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
read -et .001
read -e -p "type something: "
echo -e "\nyou typed $REPLY"
Note that 'read -e -t 0' does not exit, so it really has something to do with
timings.
Regards,
Fabien
