I don't see how that absolves you from word splitting during expansion. Rather, it enforces the point I made about $varfoo versus ${var}foo. Since / is not a valid character in a variable name, the var name ends before it. How about you do a simple test?
$ var="foo bar" $ touch ${var}
How many files were created? Remember this is bash, not ZSH.
I thought I have tested this already in a PKGBUILD. Maybe I had false memories. Nevertheless I'd suggest removing the quotation marks. If this is not the reason he can add them again. Heiko
