I think those are the merits of that oh so understandable and clear shell
syntax. Clearly ${...#word} removes the shortest prefix while ${...##word}
removes the longest match. :-)

Hi Lee,

Based on the nominations in the bug report, I assume this patch is
intended for both Maverick and Lucid.

And just a small tweak noted below. . .

This should be:

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570500

The launchpad janitor parses for the above syntax and will auto close
the bug when the fix is uploaded.
