This bug was fixed in the package bash - 4.3-8ubuntu1 --------------- bash (4.3-8ubuntu1) utopic; urgency=medium
* Merge with Debian; remaining changes: bash (4.3-8) unstable; urgency=medium * Apply upstream patches 012 - 022, fixing the issues: - When a SIGCHLD trap runs a command containing a shell builtin while a script is running `wait' to wait for all running children to complete, the SIGCHLD trap will not be run once for each child that terminates. - Using reverse-i-search when horizontal scrolling is enabled does not redisplay the entire line containing the successful search results. - Under certain circumstances, $@ is expanded incorrectly in contexts where word splitting is not performed. - When completing directory names, the directory name is dequoted twice. This causes problems for directories with single and double quotes in their names. - An extended glob pattern containing a slash (`/') causes the globbing code to misinterpret it as a directory separator. - The code that creates local variables should not clear the `invisible' attribute when returning an existing local variable. Let the code that actually assigns a value clear it. - When assigning an array variable using the compound assignment syntax, but using `declare' with the rhs of the compound assignment quoted, the shell did not mark the variable as visible after successfully performing the assignment. - The -t timeout option to `read' does not work when the -e option is used. LP: #1317476. - When PS2 contains a command substitution, here-documents entered in an interactive shell can sometimes cause a segmentation fault. - When the readline `revert-all-at-newline' option is set, pressing newline when the current line is one retrieved from history results in a double free and a segmentation fault. Closes: #747341. - Using nested pipelines within loops with the `lastpipe' option set can result in a segmentation fault. * Fix typo in package description. Closes: #707810. -- Matthias Klose <d...@ubuntu.com> Mon, 04 Aug 2014 09:35:20 +0200 ** Changed in: bash (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bash in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1317476 Title: read builtin does not timeout when using readline for input Status in “bash” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: As of 14.04 the read builtin seemingly ignores -t if -e is provided.
