When I try to execute shell script starting with a ":", that fails:
###############################################################################
$ cat helloworld
:
echo "Hello, world"
$ ls -l helloworld
-rwxr-xr-x 1 benoitr Pairing 22 Oct 30 16:51 helloworld
$ ./helloworld
bash: ./helloworld: No such file or directory
$ /bin/sh < ./helloworld
Hello, world
###############################################################################
If I replace the first line with "#!/bin/sh", everything goes well.
As you can see, the "x" attribute is there (as seen with ls) so it is
really recognized as an executable file.
Also, this problem doesn't arise with B20 version (It is installed on
other work stations and I tried this little script, everything did
well!)
I know I can convert all the shell scripts easily, but I ***don't want***
to do that ;-) for many reasons.
Can someone help me please??? Is this a known bug? I searched the best i
could in the FAQ but searching for ":" is not really helpful...
This is the output of my cygcheck -s -v -r:
