Subject: Running "unset path" breaks PATH despite emulation being enabled
Date: Fri, 8 Sep 2017 01:29:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170908082917.v5j4vczoq75vs5lk@sinister.lan.codevat.com> (raw)

According and <http://www.zsh.org/mla/users/2015/msg00180.html> and the
manual, Z shell should become roughly POSIX compatible when using
"emulate sh". When using emulation, running 'path=""' does not break
PATH command execution, but running 'unset path' still does which seems
like a bug to me:

    $ zsh -c 'emulate -L sh; path=""; ls /dev/null'
    /dev/null
    $ zsh -c 'emulate -L sh; unset path; ls /dev/null'
    zsh:1: command not found: ls
