Package: dash Version: 0.5.5.1-3 Severity: important Tags: sid wait exit status is wrong, it is 145 (signaled with SIGCHLD). Downgrading to 0.5.5.1-3 solves the problem. This is a simple test that shows the bug:
ta...@birba:~$ cat /tmp/test-dash.sh true & p1=$! true & p2=$! wait $p2 || echo p2 fails # if you print $? of the wait statement you get 145 wait $p1 || echo p1 fails ta...@birba:~$ dash /tmp/test-dash.sh p2 fails ta...@birba:~$ bash /tmp/test-dash.sh ta...@birba:~$ sudo aptitude install dash=0.5.5.1-3 .... ta...@birba:~$ dash /tmp/test-dash.sh In case it helps debugging: note that if the two wait lines are swapped, it works...
