Would you like make the changes needed for bash 5.0. Generally the changes are small, but there generally are some in the output.
My tendancy right now for my doing this is to wait until I start using bash 5.x and need to use the debugger.

In commit #f2f889c I have started the update process of updating for bash 5.0.
If you are up to it, please try that out and see if that addresses things.
Ticket moved from /p/bashdb/bugs/60/
This seems to be a duplicate of https://sourceforge.net/p/bashdb/feature-requests/7/ from last January.
Closing this and we can continue the discussion there.
