Package: bash
Version: 4.2-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
My "$HOME"/.bashrc does set -u, which causes it to warn about
dereferencing undefined variables. Whenever I start a shell, I get a
warning (in LANG=fi_FI.utf8) like this:
bash: debian_chroot: sitomaton muuttuja
The fix is simple. In /etc/bash.bashrc, replace $debian_chroot with
${debian_chroot:-}. This should work even in dash:
- if [ -z "$debian_chroot" ] && [ -r /etc/debian_chroot ]; then
+ if [ -z "${debian_chroot:-}" ] && [ -r /etc/debian_chroot ]; then
There are similar problems in the bash-completion package, which prompted me
to uninstall it. (It spit out similar messages, and completion did not work
at all when the package was installed.)
