# Description of problem: The test command in ZSH 5.0.7 seems to be broken for some input values, in particular, '!' (a string containing only an exclamation mark). It causes a "too many arguments" error, instead of handling whatever content it is passed properly. # Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): zsh 5.0.7-8.fc22 # How reproducible: Always # Steps to Reproduce: In ZSH, run [ -n '!' ] # Actual results: Non-zero return code, and following printed in stderr: [: too many arguments # Expected results: Zero return code and no output. # Additional info: The issue has been confirmed to me in the ZSH mailing list [1], and seems to have been fixed in version 5.0.8. The commit containing the fix was given out as well, so a backport should be possible (and greatly appreciated) if an update to 5.0.8 cannot be considered in the near future.

Thank you for reporting the bug! I believe it is safe to update zsh to 5.0.8 in stable Fedora. That version of zsh has been in rawhide for two weeks without any regressions reported so far.
zsh-5.0.8-1.fc21 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 21. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/zsh-5.0.8-1.fc21
