Package: dash
Version: 0.5.7-4+b1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

it is not possible with dash to resume suspended jobs with fg %string.

For example after suspending vi with Control-Z, the command

fg %vi

does not resume vi, but gives always the inappropriate error message:

sh: 8: fg: %vi: ambiguous

even if vi is the only active job.
