I can't reproduce this with the sequence of commands you posted and the
code looks correct to me.
I think there are two cases in which the script is broken: if it's
called with sh -e (or from a set -e shell) or if it's interrupted (e.g.
^C).
The /bin/bzdiff script looks broken here. I didn't call the script
with sh -e or interrupt the script. Maybe the script has been fixed
or rewritten in a latter version.
The bzdiff script creates a tmp file when it is called:
tmp=`mktemp ${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/bzdiff.XXXXXXXXXX`
The tmp file is deleted using /bin/rm in one and only one case where
comparing one .bz2 file to another .bz2 file.
I can fix the problem here by moving the '/bin/rm -f $tmp;;' line to
just before the exit line.
I've attached the /bin/bzdiff source and bzdiff.diff for my patched
version that fixes the problem for me on Ubuntu 8.04. My patch deletes
the tmp file in all cases. A possibly better fix would be to create
the tmp file only in the one case where it is needed.
Thanks.
