>Description:
Having a script:
--- snip
#!/bin/sh
timecmd() {
echo "$(date) -- \"$*\""
time -h -- $*
res=$?
echo
echo
return $res
}
timecmd portupgrade -aDFR -O
--- snap
leads to output:
--- snip
# update up
Mon Sep 16 11:28:47 CEST 2013 -- "portupgrade -aDFR -O"
[Reading data from pkg(8) ... - 272 packages found - done]
---> Fetching the distfile(s) for 'sqlite3-3.8.0.2' (databases/sqlite3)
---> Fetching '/usr/ports/databases/sqlite3'
^D
--- snap
at this point the script stops. Changing it to read:
--- snip
#!/bin/sh
timecmd() {
echo "$(date) -- \"$*\""
time -h -- $*
res=$?
echo
echo
return $res
}
timecmd portupgrade -aDFR -O \< /dev/null
--- snap
leads to output:
--- snip
# update up
Mon Sep 16 12:22:51 CEST 2013 -- "portupgrade -aDFR -O < /dev/null"
[Reading data from pkg(8) ... - 272 packages found - done]
: date format error
--- snap
Looks like there is something going on inside portupgrade while fiddling with
stdio/stderr/stdin giving strange results or leading to hanging processes
waiting for input.
>How-To-Repeat:
Copy the above script, execute it to update ports database
>Fix:
Do not use portupgrade with any io-redirects
Do not use "time" or others to execute portupgrade
So really: no fix known.
