Description of problem: ash crashes when given an invalid variable construct to evaluate Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ash-0.3.8-5 How reproducible: $ echo ${PWD:1} Syntax error: Bad substitution Segmentation fault Steps to Reproduce: See above. Actual results: Segmentation fault Expected results: Bad substitution, then return to shell prompt Additional info: I was just testing ash to see whether it supported this construct; apparently it does not, but it shouldn't crash as a result.
ash-0.3.8-8 should be in rawhide addressing this problem soon
