Changelog
dash (0.5.7-1) unstable; urgency=low
* new upstream release.
* optimize dash -c "script" to notice the last command and
exec it without forking (thx Jilles Tjoelker; closes:
#436466). This change is inspired by a similar trick in
ksh, bash, and zsh and can be useful in commands passed to
system(), popen(), and Makefiles, where "exec" is usually
not explicitly used.
* remove spurious space in descriptions of PS1, PS2, PS4 (thx
Kalle Olavi Niemitalo; closes: #624715).
* test builtin: use faccessat if available (closes: #539909,
#556521) so ACLs and other corner cases can be handled
correctly.
* debian/diff/:
- remove patches applied upstream (i.e. all except 0045, 0046).
- 0045-SHELL-print-n-upon-EOF-...diff: rename to 0001-*.
- 0046-PARSER-Remove-backslash-...diff: rename to 0002-*.
- 0003-VAR-Disable-LINENO-support.diff: new; remove LINENO
support (closes: #582952, reopens: #540685).
* debian/po/sk.po: [INTL:sk] Slovak debconf templates (thx
Slavko; closes: #611556).
* debian/po/nl.po: [INTL:nl] Dutch debconf templates (thx
Jeroen Schot; closes: #624172).
