The following packages have been upgraded in the Cygwin distribution:
* dash 0.5.12-2
This package is being upgraded to current as the previous release
breaks existing function that may be relied on by some scripts.
This release has been rebuilt disabling libc fnmatch and glob as
Cygwin/winsup/newlib do not support locale dependent named character
classes like glibc.
Thanks to Andrey Repin for testing and bringing this to our attention,
and Harald van Dijk on the dash list for pointing out the commit
responsible and the solution.
DASH is a POSIX-compliant implementation of /bin/sh that aims to be
as small as possible. It does this without sacrificing speed where
possible. In fact, it is significantly faster than bash (the GNU
Bourne-Again SHell) for most tasks.
