Package: cdebconf
Version: 0.270
Tags: patch
Dear cdebconf maintainers,
in confmodule, the command arguments are passed to cdebconf via
IFS=' ' printf "%s\n" "$*"
That command-local assignment of IFS affects the way printf works, but
not the way in which "$*" is expanded by the shell: "$*" will be still
expanded using the IFS of the calling shell.
Example of this fault behavior:
$ dash -c 'IFS="."; set -- a b c; IFS=" " printf "%s\n" "$*"'
a.b.c.
This means that any db_foo command will fail if the calling shell's IFS
does not start with a space, e.g. `IFS=$'\n'; while read foo; do ...
do_foo ...; done`.
A patch to fix this this issue is available at
https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/cdebconf/-/merge_requests/20
