I'm using Fedora 25, and have added the following alias to my bash profile:
alias releasenotes="dnf updateinfo --refresh info `dnf check-update | cut -d '.' -f 1 | xargs` | less"
(I can't use straight-up dnf updateinfo info
because of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1405191)
My alias works, but the command takes about 10 seconds to run, and since bash parses and validates all aliases when the profile is sourced, creating a new shell results in a 10-second hang. This is annoying.
Is there any way to make bash not try to parse and validate aliases--or just that one?
That did it! You answered first, so you get the credit. – iLikeDirt – 2017-03-05T14:52:26.153
