[Pkg-zsh-devel] Bug#613162: zsh: Loading colors script fails, bad set of key/value pairs

[Benjamin Peter]

Package: zsh
Version: 4.3.10-14
Severity: normal


Hi,

when I try the following, I get an error message:

$ autoload -U colors
$ colors
colors:89: bad set of key/value pairs for associative array

Commenting out the following line helps:

/usr/share/zsh/functions/Misc/colors
 89 colour=(${(kv)color}) # A case where ksh namerefs would be useful ...

Any idea why this fails?


regards,

Benjamin Peter.
