Bug#181541: libc6: devpts.sh fails due to bad quoting



Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.1-11
Severity: normal

Hi there!
>From /etc/init.d/devpts.sh:

devfs_mounted=`grep -qci '[<[:space:]]/dev[>[:space:]].*devfs' /proc/mounts || true`
[...]
if [ $devfs_mounted = 0 ] && [ $devpts_avail != 0 ]

this fails on my system with

devpts.sh:17: [: =: unary operator expected

since the grep call does not return anything.
It probably should be if [ "$devfs_mounted" ...], no?

Greetings,
	-- Jorgen
