Hi,
I don't know why kiwi's initrd calls an external tool for it either :)
There is a good reason. When using expr you see that when in shell debug mode (set -x) when using $((...)) you don't see the calculation bits just the result. So it was helpful for debugging for me but I will eliminate the use of expr if it's gone Just to tell you I don't think it's a good idea to remove old stone linux tools like expr you will break more than just kiwi with it no matter how long you set the "depreciated" bit on it nobody ever will remove ifconfig vs ip and that is set as depreciated for more than two years ;) Thanks Regards, Marcus -- Public Key available gpg --keyserver gpg-keyserver.de --recv-keys 0xCCE3C6A2 ------------------------------------------------------- Marcus Schäfer (Res. & Dev.)
