Thanks but no worry. I am myself actually in favor of
providing sufficient information. So I did and took the
possibly (!) ever so slight chiding undertones (?) as a
lesson in humility :-))
Eventually, I went with
TARGET_DB=`pg_restore -C -s ${BACKUP}.dir | head -n 40 | grep -i
"create database gnumed_v" | cut -f 3 -d " "`
which is intended to be used under
bash:
Installiert: 4.3-14+b1
Installationskandidat: 4.3-14+b1
Versionstabelle:
*** 4.3-14+b1 0

100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
4.3-11+b1 0
500 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ jessie/main i386 Packages
Note that I changed the "head -1" to "head -n 40"
