Bash Version: 3.1
Patch Level: 17
Release Status: release
Description:
Assignment to GROUPS in logical or expression not testable.
Repeat-By:
GROUPS="hello" || echo Error
should print "Error", since
GROUPS="hello"
echo $?
returns 1
according to man page:
" Assignments to GROUPS have no effect and return an error status."
Problem seems to be persistent on all platforms and for instance on
bash 3.00.16, too.
Fix:
Sorry, no fix so far.
