Bug 525122 – net-misc/openconnect - /etc/init.d/openconnect has bashisms

• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description tharvik 2014-10-12 09:56:27 UTC]

By using dash as /bin/sh, openconnect fail to start (work correctly with bash).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge app-shells/dash
2. emerge app-admin/eselect-sh
2. eselect sh set 2 [if only having bash and dash]
3. rc-service openconnect.vpn0 start [or any symlink to /etc/init.d/openconnect]
Actual Results:  
openconnect        |/lib64/rc/sh/runscript.sh: 85: /etc/init.d/openconnect: Syntax error: redirection unexpected
openconnect        | * ERROR: openconnect failed to start


Expected Results:  
Launching openconnect without trouble.

There seem to be an here-doc-string on the faulty line, where dash only support here-doc-text.

There have been some changes to the init script since 4.08.  Have you tried openconnect 6.00 to see if it exhibits the same issue?

It's working with 6.00, no more warnings.
