You probably forgot to quote the variable: | $ a="foo | > bar" | $ echo $a | foo bar | $ echo "$a" | foo | bar The following works fine for me: | RULESET=$(drop_seconds <<< "$RULESET") > I just wanted to make this reliable, it has been bothering me in my > test infrastructure which is running this in a loop and occasionally > triggering this false positive. ACK. These things must get fixed, otherwise running the testsuite before submitting/pushing becomes useless ("it fails anyway"). Cheers, Phil PS: I found this works fine: | drop_seconds() { | sed 's/[0-9]\+m\?s//g' | } So just "drop all occurences of numbers followed by ms or s". You have to send a follow-up anyway for the s/15m/14m59s/ change, right? PPS: The 'exit 1' is pointless: The script has 'set -e' and $DIFF returns non-zero if input differs. ;)
