Bash Version: 3.2 Patch Level: 39 Release Status: release Description: i dont know if the bug is a bash bug or openssl or echo, but when i echo a string and pipe it to openssl, the output comes on the same line as the prompt instead of a new line. it makes the output hard to read because it is prepended to the prompt text, e.g. mySecretPasswordtcadmin@buildserver: ~$ Repeat-By: 1. run the following code in bash terminal: echo OHBjcWNLNGlQaVF5 | openssl base64 -d 2. the output in the bash terminal looks like this: mySecretPasswordtcadmin@buildserver: ~$ 3. the output SHOULD look like this: mySecretPassword tcadmin@buildserver: ~$
