Hi, We found a bug of tr, the version is tr (coreutils) 5.2.1 Here is the symptom: When there is a file named e or r under current directory, tr will take effect£¬like£º echo hello |tr [a-z] [A-Z] echo hello |tr [:lower:] [:upper:] will return hello And when is a file named l, o, p, u or w under current directory, tr will give error message like: echo hello |tr [a-z] [A-Z] echo hello |tr [:lower:] [:upper:] gives : tr: misaligned [:upper:] and/or [:lower:] construct But if you try echo kkhh |tr "[a-z]" "[A-Z]" echo kkhh |tr "[:lower:]" "[:upper:]" There will be no error and it takes effect.
