Thanks for the report.
However, I don't think this is a bug but more a misunderstanding
on your side how seq works. It's clearly documented that the
second number (if 3 are given) is the increment. As you passed
0 as value, the target 10 is never reached, and therefore seq
continues to produce output. Thus, it exactly does what you
told it to do. What else would you expect?
Have a nice day,
