[Bug 715746] Re: backslashes are removed by parser

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package kickseed - 0.56ubuntu1

---------------
kickseed (0.56ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian.  Remaining changes:
    - Add basic RAID support.  (LVM-on-RAID won't quite work yet.)
    - Add basic iSCSI support.

kickseed (0.56) unstable; urgency=low

  * Preseed partman-lvm/confirm_overwrite as well as partman-lvm/confirm.
  * Preseed partman-lvm/device_remove_lvm when confirming logvol results,
    since Kickstart doesn't have a separate control with a one-to-one
    correspondence to this (LP: #708548).
  * Don't perform an extra layer of backslash interpretation when reading
    lines from Kickstart files (LP: #715746).  Note that this may break some
    existing Kickstart files that tried to work around the previous
    behaviour; this seems like the lesser of two evils.
  * Allow ksdevice=bootif, with netcfg 1.63.

Title:
  backslashes are removed by parser

Status in “kickseed” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “kickseed” source package in Oneiric:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Backslashes are removed by the kickstart parser.

  If you e.g. got something like:

  sed -i -e "s/^\s*#*\s*\(account\s*required\s*pam_access\.so.*\)/\1/"
  /etc/pam.d/login /etc/pam.d/sshd

  within a %post section it won't actually work.
