664 * New upstream release.
665 * Bugs fixed in this release (and the alpha/beta releases and release
667 - Fixed a bug that caused the prompt to overwrite previous output when the
668 output doesn't contain a newline and the locale supports multibyte
669 characters. This same change fixes the problem of readline redisplay
670 slowing down dramatically as the line gets longer in multibyte locales.
672 - The shell no longer seg faults if the expanded value of $PS4 is null
673 and `set -x' is enabled. Closes: #165533.
674 - Don't define a default DEFAULT_MAIL_DIRECTORY, because it can cause
675 a timeout on NFS mounts. Closes: #211426.
676 - Fixed a bad interaction between alias and completion. Closes: #186218.
677 - Fix initialization of local variables with "$@". Closes: #180290.
678 - Fixed segfault in "read -a foo <<< $(echo)". Closes: #167003.
679 - Fixed the history word tokenizer to handle <( and >( better when used as
680 part of bash. Closes: #165212.
681 - Fixed EINTR signal killing redirection. Closes: #164134.
682 - Fixed infinite loop with IFS="<non-ws-char>" and compgen -W.
684 - Fixed the internal logout code so that shells that time out waiting for
685 input (using $TMOUT) run ~/.bash_logout. Closes: #152847.
686 - Speedups to the multibyte character redisplay code. Closes: #197965.
687 - Better error message on wrong kill arguments. Closes: #193570.
688 - Overwriting of prompt. Closes: #176968.
689 - The shell now reports on processes that dump core due to signals when
690 invoked as `-c command'. Closes: #211693.
691 - Fixed ferror beeing called w/o always first calling clearerr
692 results in spurious errors reported. Closes: #195116.
693 - Add missing trailing slash on directory completion. Closes: #178828.
694 - Fix different behaviour for builtin and external commands together
695 with arithmetic expansion. Closes: #173744.
696 - Fixed a bug that caused redirections accompanying a null command
697 to persist in the current shell. Closes: #173148.
698 - Fixed a bug that caused a leading `-' in the shell's name to cause it to
699 not be recognized as a restricted shell. Closes: #170298.
700 - Fix segfault in ill formed paramter expansion. Closes: #162773.
701 - Fixed a bug in brace expansion that caused a quoted `$' preceding an
702 open brace to inhibit brace expansion. Closes: #157954.
703 - Removed the attempts to avoid adding a slash at the end of a completed
704 executable name if there was a directory with the same name in the
705 current directory. Closes: #155134, #189006.
706 - Fix error message for circular alias expansions. Closes: #173588.
707 - Fixed a bug that caused some key bindings set in an inputrc to be ignored
708 at shell startup. Closes: #110969.
709 - Fix segfault on bad array subscripts. Closes: #232653.
710 - Fix "set completion-ignore-case on" breaking some tab completion.
712 - Flag an error when a user uses "% DIGITS" instead of "%DIGITS", and
713 don't give him a different job instead. Closes: #173854.
714 - For 'cd filename' say 'not a directory', not 'no such file or directory'
715 when filename exists and is not a directory. Closes: #219958.
716 - Expansion results are the same for ${1:+"$@"} and "$@" if IFS is not
718 - The locale code does a better job of recomputing the various locale
719 variable values when LC_ALL is unset. Closes: #160932.

1326 the noclobber option to the set builtin command is not enabled, the
1327 redirection is attempted even if the file named by word exists."
1328 * Fixed upstream in 2.05: #84743.
1329 * #76596: Bourne-style shells have always accepted multiple directory name
1330 arguments to cd. If the user doesn't like it, have him define a shell
1331 function (see README.Debian).
1332 * bash already has enabled the system wide /etc/bash.bashrc (#82117).
1333 * #88223: Starting bash with --posix, or -o posix, or as `sh', does make
1334 the entire bash session posix-compliant (with the caveats noted in the
1335 info manual). Posix-compliant does not mean `behaves exactly like
1336 historical versions of sh', nor does it mean `does only what is in
1337 the standard and nothing more'.
1339 Posix says nothing about brace expansion, so whether or not bash does
1340 brace expansion in posix mode has no bearing on posix compliance.
1342 If you don't want brace expansion, use `set +o braceexpand' or
1343 `set +B' or start bash with the `+B' option.
1345 * Lower temporarily severity of #92455, so that this version can move
1346 to testing. This bug exists in 2.04 as well, so we don't make things
1348 * Apply upstream patch 1.

1468 * The `-l' option to test is not included by intent (fixes #13645).
1469 Comment from upstream: "The `-l' option should never have been documented,
1470 and it was a mistake to include it in the first place -- it screws up the
1471 grammar. Old Bourne shells and test commands had it because there was no
1472 other way to find the length of a variable's value. Since bash has
1473 ${#variable}, there's no need for it. POSIX.2 says, in the rationale,
1474 that implementation is irregular and that the shell supports it directly.
1475 * Report #26720: perl -e 'print ":;" x 100000' > foo; . ./foo dumps core.
1476 Comment from upstream: This is not a bash bug; it is a process resource
1477 problem. The default resource limit for stack size is 8M on my version of
1478 Linux. The call tree created by the parser for the script (100000 calls
1479 to `:') is 99999 nodes deep, and requires that many recursive calls to the
1480 command execution routines. This overflows the stack, and bash segfaults.
1481 I couldn't reproduce it anywhere but Linux, because the machines I tested
1482 on all have reasonable default stack sizes. Raising the limit to 16M is
1483 sufficient to cause the script to run successfully (I didn't try anything
1484 between 8M and 16M).

1574 names that are not identifiers is something that may go away in the future.

1578 upstream author, this feature was removed in bash-2.01.1. The TAB
1579 completion only succeeds with globbing characters if there is a single
1580 completion. It caused too many problems otherwise.

1584 bash behavior with respect to the exit status of a pipeline will not
