[Bug 1368084] [NEW] phablet-shell: 72: [: /bin/bash:: unexpected operator, tries to read /root/.bash_profile

[Martin Pitt]

Public bug reported:

Recent phablet-shell (r307) gives a lot of error messages:

$ ~/ubuntu/phablet-tools/phablet-shell  
/home/martin/ubuntu/phablet-tools/phablet-shell: 72: [: /bin/bash:: unexpected operator
/bin/bash: /root/.bash_profile: Permission denied
/home/martin/.ssh/known_hosts updated.
Original contents retained as /home/martin/.ssh/known_hosts.old
9 KB/s (395 bytes in 0.040s)
/bin/bash: /root/.bash_profile: Permission denied
/bin/bash: /root/.bash_profile: Permission denied
/bin/bash: /root/.bash_profile: Permission denied

The syntax error comes from

    ADBUID="$(adb shell "id -u"|tr -d '\n')"
    if [ $ADBUID -eq 0 ]; then

as the shell command includes all these errors about
/root/.bash_profile:

$ adb shell 'id -u'
/bin/bash: /root/.bash_profile: Permission denied
32011

Supposedly the recent changes to adbd forgot to set a proper $HOME or
something similar?
