Description: gawk 5.0.1-1 shows an error if i open an terminal window. Guess that happen while sourcing my ~/.bashrc file. It doesn't happen with previous version 4.2.1-2. I'm not sure if this could be an upstream bug or not. File .bashrc attached and error screenshsot attached.

Error message: awk: Kommandozeile:7: Warnung: regexp escape sequence `\"' is not a known regexp operator

I'm using xfce 4.14 and xfce 4.14 terminal window

Steps to reproduce: Open an terminal window
