Package: bridge-utils
Version: 1.5-13+deb9u1
Followup-For: Bug #873086
I've just ran into this same bug.
I believe the proble comes from line 63 of /lib/bridge-utils/bridge-utils.sh
63 dev="${port%.*}"
because this runs in a function within the containing script, it alters
the value of $dev. This bug can be fixed by simply adding the 'local'
keyword; thus making the line
local dev="${port%.*}"
to localise the value to within that one function, stopping it breaking
the containing code.
I can send a patch if required.
