Package: bash Version: 4.3-7 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
the following code fails in Debian Sid: for (( j=0; j<( $(echo 1) + 2 ); j++ )); do echo foobar; done The reported error is: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' and no output is printed (instead of the string "foobar" repeated for 3 lines) If there I put a space between "<" and "(" the script run as expected: for (( j=0; j< ( $(echo 1) + 2 ); j++ )); do echo foobar; done so the problem might be in "<(" being interpreted as a process substitution...
