apticron report [Sat, 05 Jun 2010 02:19:03 +0400]
========================================================================
apticron has detected that some packages need upgrading on:
gaa -e
[ 127.0.0.1 192.168.1.2 192.168.64.3 ]
The following packages are currently pending an upgrade:
+ PKGPATH=/var/cache/apt/archives/
+ LC_ALL=en /usr/bin/apt-cache policy base-files
+ /bin/grep Candidate:
+ /usr/bin/cut -f 4 -d
+ VER=5.6
+ echo 5.6
+ /bin/sed -e s/:/%3a/g
+ VERFILE=5.6
/usr/sbin/apticron: 1: Syntax error: Bad fd number
I think that problem is in line 206 in /usr/sbin/apticron:
if ls ${PKGPATH}${PKG}_${VERFILE}_*.deb >& /dev/null ; then
This construction (>&) is valid for bash, but causes syntax error in
dash (my default shell).
