[PATCH] Fix '\%o' for printf from coreutils

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The printf utility provided by coreutils when interpreting '\%o' format
does not recognize %o as formatting directive. For example
printf '\%o 0 returns \%o and warning: ignoring excess arguments,
starting with ‘0’, which results in failed tests in
t5309-pack-delta-cycles.sh. In most shells the test ends with success as
the printf is a builtin utility.

Fix it by using '\\%o' which is interpreted consistently in all versions
of printf.

I've found it while testing v1.8.5-rc0 with mksh which does not
provide a builtin printf.
