DetailsDescription:
When trying to update the pci ids database there is an error message : [root@myhost ~]# update-pciids /usr/sbin/update-pciids: line 18: [: : integer expression expected The problem sits in line 8 where PCI_COMPRESSED_IDS is set to nothing. At line 18 there is a test to see if the variable equal 1. Of course it fails doing the comparison. That code is a nonsense since there is no code that could change the value of PCI_COMPRESSED_IDS after its definition and before the comparison. So I suppose the script miss some code? 1 #!/bin/sh 2 3 [ "$1" = "-q" ] && quiet=true || quiet=false 4 5 set -e 6 SRC="http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/v2.2/pci.ids" 7 DEST=/usr/share/hwdata/pci.ids 8 PCI_COMPRESSED_IDS= 9 GREP=grep 10 11 # if pci.ids is read-only (because the filesystem is read-only), 12 # then just skip this whole process. 13 if ! touch ${DEST} >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then 14 ${quiet} || echo "${DEST} is read-only, exiting." 1>&2 15 exit 1 16 fi 17 18 if [ "$PCI_COMPRESSED_IDS" -eq 1 ] ; then 19 DECOMP="cat" 20 SRC="$SRC.gz" 21 GREP=zgrep 22 elif which bzip2 >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then 23 DECOMP="bzip2 -d" 24 SRC="$SRC.bz2" 25 elif which gzip >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then 26 DECOMP="gzip -d" 27 SRC="$SRC.gz" 28 else 29 DECOMP="cat" 30 fi Additional info: * package version(s) core/pciutils 3.1.9-1 (base) [installed] * config and/or log files etc. Steps to reproduce: launch : /usr/sbin/update-pciids |

Here's a very small patch to set the PCI_COMPRESSED_IDS variable to something sane which fixes the bash error.
