See the tracker bug. The plain [[ -z is good but... if [[ -z "${REPLACING_VERSIONS}" ]] || [[ ${REPLACING_VERSIONS} < 8.0 ]]; then This is going to cause unexpected behavior when REPLACING_VERSIONS has >1 value. Besides, < is lexicographical string comparison, so e.g. 10.0 < 8.0 will evaluate true.
