idoit-jobs: Error on using passwords with special characters #7
Description
Expected behavior
Normal execution of idoit-jobs.
Actual behavior
If the password configured in /etc/i-doit/i-doit.sh contains a character you'd normally escape, the shell prints an error about that character being unexpected.
Steps to reproduce the behavior
- In i-doit.sh, set a password with a character you'd normally escape. For me it was a ' ( '.
- Execute idoit-jobs.
