[Bug 1366986] Re: bashisms in update_firmware

[Adam Conrad]

Looks like this was fixed in utopic with 1.2.21, adding a trusty task so
we don't forget that it needs an SRU.

** Also affects: powerpc-ibm-utils (Ubuntu Trusty)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Changed in: powerpc-ibm-utils (Ubuntu)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Released

Title:
  bashisms in update_firmware

Status in “powerpc-ibm-utils” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “powerpc-ibm-utils” source package in Trusty:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The update_flash_nv script contains a number of bashisms.

  # update_flash --help
  /usr/sbin/update_flash_nv: 375: [: root: unexpected operator
  update_flash: Must be root to execute this command.
  #

  Correcting the == to = (in two places), the script then fails instead
  with:

  # update_flash -v -f 01TV810_061_054.img 
  /usr/sbin/update_flash_nv: 204: local: FW810.00: bad variable name
  #

  This one appears to be a matter of missing quoting.
