Greetings;
When I run anything that is actually a shell script starting with
#!/bin/sh and maybe any thing that uses a shell function I get five or
six screens full of messages that look like the following and all start
with /bin/sh
/bin/sh: _openssl: line 25: syntax error near
`unexpected token `('
/bin/sh: _openssl: line 25: ` -@(in|out|oid))'
/bin/sh: error importing function definition for
`_openssl'
/bin/sh: _service: line 4: syntax error in
conditional expression: unexpected token `('
/bin/sh: _service: line 4: syntax error near `@(*'
/bin/sh: _service: line 4: ` [[ ${COMP_WORDS[0]} !=
@(*init.d/!(functions|~)|service) ]] && return 0;'
One example is /usr/bin/bashbug
but all scripts that start with #!/bin/sh
seem to have the problem.
One function that has the problem is one I wrote that does an ls and
pipes it to less. As follows;
function lm ()
{
ls -laNF "$@" | $(which less)
}
Anybody have any idea about what is causing these errors
or where to look?
What is the output from
ls -la /bin/sh
please Dennis?
I think it should be something like:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2008-06-17 21:20 /bin/sh -> bash
and if not, then that could be a starting place.
Well, great minds often run along the same track, but I
guess we still have farther to go. The results of ls -la
/bin/sh are exactly as they should be:
> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2008-08-29 11:21 /bin/sh -> bash
Anyway, we know that is configed correctly.
Any other ideas? Oh yeah, I'm running Lenny.
TNX,
Dennis
