Description Michal Hlavinka 2011-03-11 17:45:38 UTC

Description of problem:
I was working on script for fixing broken non-utf8 file names (qt/kde can't handle them well), but found out that bash have some problems with iso-8859-2 strings when locale is set to utf-8

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bash-4.2.7-1.fc15.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. echo foo | tr [$'\xFD'$'\xBA'] [$'\xFD'$'\xBE']
  
Actual results:
bash loops with 100 % CPU

Expected results:
foo


Additional info:
Tested with ksh and mksh shells and it works there. When you set LC_ALL=en_US.iso-8859-1 then it works in bash too:

LC_ALL=en_US.iso-8859-1; echo foo | tr [$'\xFD'$'\xBA'] [$'\xFD'$'\xBE']

prints "foo" as expected.

Comment 1 Roman Rakus 2011-03-14 09:00:31 UTC

Thanks for the report. The bug is in the bash globbing.
Easy reproducer:
[$'\xFD'$'\xBA']
