$ echo $(echo one) $(echo two) one two $ What do you get on your 6.2 installation for this? What shell is used as /bin/sh? [andrewd@gateway andrewd]$ echo $(echo one) $(echo two) one two [andrewd@gateway andrewd]$ rpm -qf /bin/sh bash-1.14.7-22 BTW... echo `echo one` `echo two` may be a little more standard for command expansion (works with the solaris /bin/sh where as $(command) doesn't). Gives the same result. $() should work fine with any reasonable shell: bash,pdksh,zsh, so I close this bug. Florian La Roche |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-22enterprise i686) Note the use of the 'echo' statements in forming the arg string used to invoke sendmail: This is what is distributed with RH6.X... the -q arg is lost: daemon /usr/sbin/sendmail $([ "$DAEMON" = yes ] && echo " -bd ") \ $([ -n "$QUEUE" ] && echo -q$QUEUE) This is my hack which fixes this: daemon /usr/sbin/sendmail $([ "$DAEMON" = yes ] && echo -n " -bd ") \ $([ -n "$QUEUE" ] && echo -n -q$QUEUE) (who wrote this!) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail start 2. tail /var/log/maillog 3. observe the startup report for sendmail Actual Results: maillog.4:Jan 22 20:52:21 gateway sendmail[16197]: starting daemon (8.9.3): SMTP Expected Results: maillog:Feb 22 10:57:19 gateway sendmail[18610]: starting daemon (8.9.3): SMTP+queueing@01:00:00 see my description for my quick fix
