Hi, I wrote a shell script on a non-Debian system and assumed, in my greenness, that testing it with #!/bin/bash --posix would ensure that the script would run under dash too. I was wrong. Of course that is the fault of bash and not dash. Here is a simplified form of the script: #!/bin/dash # This works when run with #!/bin/bash --posix func() { cat /proc/1/environ } sudo sh -c "$(declare -f func); func" Can I do anything equivalent with dash? I did not find anything in the docs, but hope dies last. Of course I can swap the function out in a seperate script, but I'd like to avoid that. Thanks in advance for all ideas.
