Subject: Error in bash-completion or coreutils-8.14-1?
Date: Mon, 14 Nov 2011 05:09:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAMsuEGErNkP6ywAgybCwJJ9gUaDH9VLwOVgF7OCQM9JjAu0hfA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I seems to have isolated a problem with coreutils-8.14-1 where if I
update that package only, I will see an error
-bash: [: =: unary operator expected
whenever I start up my bash login shell. (start mintty -)
Seems to be the error is thrown by /etc/bash_completion
The postinstall script also gives an error
Package: coreutils
	coreutils.sh exit code 127
Package: Unknown package
	mintty.sh exit code 127

Everything is ok when i revert to coreutils-8.10-1.
Is this a bug with coreutils or bash-completion?

Thanks.

> cygcheck -vs | egrep -i "coreutil|bash"
bash                     4.1.10-4                   OK
bash-completion          1.3-1                      OK
coreutils                8.10-1                     OK
