Package: hal
Version: 0.5.10-4
Followup-For: Bug #448463
I see the same and it is accompanied by a syntax error regarding a
failed test.
I suspect that when line 45 of the script is processed, the variable
DELL_WCTL is not set:
In line 10-15, the variable is set, but only if you have a dell laptop:
if [ "$HAL_PROP_KILLSWITCH_ACCESS_METHOD" = "dell" ]; then
DELL_WCTL=/usr/bin/dellWirelessCtl
if [ -x /usr/sbin/dellWirelessCtl ]; then
DELL_WCTL=/usr/sbin/dellWirelessCtl
fi
fi
Which means that on other machines, the test in line 45
if [ "$HAL_PROP_KILLSWITCH_ACCESS_METHOD" = "dell" -a -x $DELL_WCTL ]; then
fails, because the variable is not simply empty, but it is not set,
therefore bash complains about a missing argument.
