https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=203435 Bug ID: 203435 Summary: sysrc(8) does not insert newline if missing at EOF Product: Base System Version: 10.2-STABLE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: andreas.sommer87@googlemail.com To reproduce: # echo -n 'a=b' >> /etc/rc.conf # sysrc c=d c: -> # cat /etc/rc.conf [...] a=bc="d" It may happen that someone changes rc.conf without adding a newline at the end of file. In that case, sysrc will also not behave correctly anymore. It should ensure the newline exists when adding a new entry. Also, the output "c: -> " is incorrect, should be "c: -> d". Else the system may not come up correctly anymore because the syntax is incorrect. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
