Fwd: [Pkg-zsh-devel] Bug#793168: zsh: expand-substitution-on-TAB broke for $(()) in 5.0.8 [origin: adi@hexapodia.org]

[Axel Beckert <abe@deuxchevaux.org>]

Hi,

this bug report has been filed against zsh 5.0.8 in Debian:

  https://bugs.debian.org/793168

I've skimmed over the commits and zsh-workers mails since the release
and didn't notice anything covering this issue yet.

I can also reproduce this issue with zsh 5.0.8 in Debian and can
confirm, that it didn't happen with zsh 5.0.7 in Debian.

Package: zsh
Version: 5.0.8-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

with zsh 5.0.7 and earlier versions, if I type $((5*8)) and then hit TAB,
the expression is replaced with its evaluation ("40" in this case). The
same feature works with many different substitutions.

as of 5.0.8 TAB-substituting does not work with $(()) anymore.

It does still work right with "${VAR}" and "$[5+8]".

the substitution does get done before running the command:

t440s% echo $((5*8))
40

seems like setopt might influence this behavior:

t440s% setopt
nobeep
globdots
interactive
login
monitor
shinstdin
zle
