Re: Problems with the new base-files-4.0-5?

I have just updated Cygwin, and now starting a console (Cygwin.bat or
MinTTY) prints:

-bash: ${p}: ambiguous redirect

and PRINTER variable isn't set.

Reverting to base-files-4.0-4 works just fine and PRINTER is set
correctly to my default printer.

In 4.0-5 it seems something is broken in /etc/profile.

Perhaps you need this:


- ([[ -e ${p} ]] && read -r PRINTER < ${p}) && PRINTER=${PRINTER%%,*}
+ ([[ -e ${p} ]] && read -r PRINTER < "${p}") && PRINTER=${PRINTER%%,*}

Ciao,
Angelo.
