4.0.5.2 is quite old by now. This said, the change that explicitly calls bash on
I see, but that was the latest version the opensuse build repositories offer. I'll try to compile form source.
No, but I guess I know what the problem is. Quoting in bash and tcsh is different (esp. nested double quotes, which don't work by default in tcsh but is a special option), so some (or all) commands might not be getting executed correctly.
Ok, I understand that. Getting quoting right for different shells is more than complicated...
I guess we'll need a more sophisticated approach that executes bash directly once and then uses a bash instance to parse the command line instead of letting the user's default shell handle parsing the initial command.
We had similiar problems in configuring a host with a bunch of ssh commands. Our solution was to create a bash script with all the neccessary code on the client side on the fly, copy it over to the target host and execute it there. Could that be solution here?
