204	rpm popt alias (--last) apparent syntax error	Lewis Rosenthal		"I really thought this was working, but testing it now, I get:

{{{
[c:\]rpm -qa --last
%-sn, , substr(sh.exe,length()+2))}' : 1: %-sn, , substr(sh.exe,length()+2))}' :
 Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
}}}

Versions:

gawk-4.0.0-2.oc00.pentium4
sed-4.2.1-2.oc00.pentium4
coreutils-8.25-3.oc00.pentium4
coreutils-common-8.25-3.oc00.pentium4
rpm-4.13.0-9.oc00.pentium4

rpm-python-4.13.0-9.oc00.pentium4
rpm-build-4.13.0-9.oc00.pentium4

(in case it's a failure of one of those).

I can reproduce under CMD, 4OS2, bash, and dash.

I've tried playing with the command line for the alias, but awk keeps barking at me because my escaping is lousy. Sorry I can't be of more help!"	defect	closed	major		rpm		low	fixed
