This is one of those rare cases where you do NOT want quotes. Change:
Code:
for FILE in "$LIST_OF_FILE_SRC" ;

to:
Code:
for FILE in $LIST_OF_FILE_SRC

But, of course, this won't work if a file in your list of files contains any whitespace characters (but if that was a problem, your awk print $NF statements wouldn't work either).

git-sh-i18n

GIT-SH-I18N(1)                                                      Git Manual                                                      GIT-SH-I18N(1)

NAME

       git-sh-i18n - Git's i18n setup code for shell scripts

SYNOPSIS

       . "$(git --exec-path)/git-sh-i18n"

DESCRIPTION

       This is not a command the end user would want to run. Ever. This documentation is meant for people who are studying the Porcelain-ish
       scripts and/or are writing new ones.

       The 'git sh-i18n scriptlet is designed to be sourced (using .) by Git's porcelain programs implemented in shell script. It provides
       wrappers for the GNU gettext and eval_gettext functions accessible through the gettext.sh script, and provides pass-through fallbacks on
       systems without GNU gettext.

FUNCTIONS

       gettext
           Currently a dummy fall-through function implemented as a wrapper around printf(1). Will be replaced by a real gettext implementation in
           a later version.

       eval_gettext
           Currently a dummy fall-through function implemented as a wrapper around printf(1) with variables expanded by the git-sh-
           i18n--envsubst(1) helper. Will be replaced by a real gettext implementation in a later version.

GIT

       Part of the git(1) suite

Git 2.17.1                                                          10/05/2018                                                      GIT-SH-I18N(1)
