Package: dash
Version: 0.5.3-3
Severity: normal
In 'dash' try this:
% foo() { export x="$@" ; }
% foo -f --c
export: 4: --c: bad variable name
% echo $?
2
It seems like it should be standard code.
Remove 'export' from 'foo()' and there's no error:
% foo() { x="$@" ; } ; foo -f --c ; echo $?
0
I just tested the code in 'bash', 'ksh' and 'pdksh'; it works with no
errors. Yet in 'posh' it gives a different error:
% posh
% foo() { export x="$@" ; } ; foo -f --c ; echo $?
export: invalid option -- -
1
Hope this helps...
