Public bug reported: The MAAS team uses a script, lp:maas-images, which generates the images available at images.maas.io. As part of this process we use the following to convert a SquashFS image to an ext4 image.
sudo bash -ec 'src="$1"; img="$2"; trgmp="$3"; mounts="" cleanup() { for m in $mounts; do umount "$m"; done; } trap cleanup EXIT mount -o loop "$img" "$trgmp" mounts="$trgmp" unsquashfs -force -xattrs -dest "$trgmp" "$src"' \ "squashimg-to-image" "$squashimg" "$output" "$trgmp" ret=$? rm -Rf "$mtmp" || return return $ret Prior to 4.4-1ubuntu1 the trap would always cause the cleanup function to always be called. Its now only called on failure. This causes the mount to remain and the following rm to fail. If I add 'false' to the end of the command script or downgrade to 4.3-15ubuntu1 the cleanup occurs. ** Affects: bash (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1641832 Title: Bash ignores exit trap on success when part of a command string To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash/+bug/1641832/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
