Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting why read line skips some lines... Post 302138893 by drl on Wednesday 3rd of October 2007 05:45:48 PM

Hi.

I'd guess that install_pkg is reading 3 times from STDIN, which is inherited from the loop, and thus from the file fileWithPkgNamesToBeInstalled.

Is there an option for install_pkg, say -y, that provides automatic answers, or an option that tells it to take input from a file different from STDIN? ... cheers, drl
