Synopsis
ksh bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated ksh package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
KSH-93 is the most recent version of the KornShell by David Korn of AT&T Bell
Laboratories. KornShell is a shell programming language which is also compatible
with sh, the original Bourne Shell.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Previously, ksh treated an array declaration as a definition. Consequently,
the array contained one element after the declaration. This bug has been fixed,
and now an array is correctly reported as empty after a declaration. (BZ#716375)
All users of ksh are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes
this bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
