Package: dash
Version: 0.5.5.1-5
Severity: important
Since version 0.5.5.1-5 the inbuild wait command of dash waits only
for the first asychronous command to to complete. To reproduce
consider the following batch file xxx:
#-----------------------
{ sleep 2 ; echo five ; } &
{ sleep 4 ; echo ten ; } &
wait
echo ok
#-----------------------
We have then
zieg...@zertz:/tmp$ dash xxx
two
ok
zieg...@zertz:/tmp$ four
and
zieg...@zertz:/tmp$ bash xxx
two
four
ok
zieg...@zertz:/tmp$
