Description Michael Schmitz 2009-01-09 10:45:16 UTC
Description of problem:
In case a user with login shell /bin/zsh logs is, the following error occurs:

  /etc/profile.d/cdargs.sh:167: parse error near `&&'

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
  cdargs-1.35-2.fc9.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a user TEST with login shell /bin/sh
2. login a user TEST
  
Actual results:
/etc/profile.d/cdargs.sh is evaluated and an error message

  /etc/profile.d/cdargs.sh:167: parse error near `&&'

is written to the terminal.

Expected results:
Either /etc/profile.d/cdargs.sh is compatible with /bin/zsh and evaluated completely during the login process, or /etc/profile.d/cdargs.sh contains a block like 

  if [ -z "${BASH_VERSION}" ]
  then
    return
  fi

to suppress evaluation.

Additional info:

Comment 1 Milos Jakubicek 2009-01-11 21:05:47 UTC
Confirmed and accepted your proposed solution (return silently). The error on line 167 is trivial to fix, what is not so trivial is the completion => hence the check will be only preventing the completion code from being executed, otherwise cdargs should be working fine. If you'd write a completion extension for zsh, I'll include it of course:)
