Description (last modified by )
The recent Java 9 change (SVN r12591) to the josm launchers introduced a bashism, the test only works when bash is configured as /bin/sh:
$ checkbashisms linux/*/usr/bin/josm*
possible bashism in linux/latest/usr/bin/josm-latest line 49 (alternative test command ([[ foo ]] should be [ foo ])):
if [[ $JAVACMD == *"java-9"* ]]; then
possible bashism in linux/latest/usr/bin/josm-latest line 49 (should be 'b = a'):
if [[ $JAVACMD == *"java-9"* ]]; then
possible bashism in linux/tested/usr/bin/josm line 49 (alternative test command ([[ foo ]] should be [ foo ])):
if [[ $JAVACMD == *"java-9"* ]]; then
possible bashism in linux/tested/usr/bin/josm line 49 (should be 'b = a'):
if [[ $JAVACMD == *"java-9"* ]]; then
The attached patch changes the test to use expr(1) which should be portable to all shells.

Done. If it works, job for r12715 should become unstable and we should see 4 warnings of type "Bashism" appear.
