This sort of thing seems like something that will be an ongoing problem so a more efficient way to solve it would be a lintian warning, which should hopefully help prevent new occurrences. OTOH it would be pretty hard to automatically check for these without a robust shell parser. Perhaps morbig from Project CoLiS could be used for the shell parsing and then a script could process the morbig output. ShellCheck might be another option but it doesn't yet output parse trees. https://bugs.debian.org/932862 https://bugs.debian.org/629247 https://www.irif.fr/~treinen/colis/ https://github.com/colis-anr/morbig https://www.shellcheck.net/ -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
