This does not work for me available_version=${available_version-% *} installed_version=${installed_version-% *} But this yes available_version=${available_version %%- *} installed_version=${installed_version%%- *} You have shown me the way to make everything work again perfectly....

Weird I wrote available_version=${available_version%%-*} And all the * have disappeared in my copy / paste Mine works. I tried it before posting :-)
