SOLVED Asterisk 20.6.0 Read Bug

[kenn10]

@wardmundy I just upgraded an existing system to Asterisk 20.6.0 and have discovered that the read command is broken. This code no longer works because the wait is not working. It falls thru to the next line immediately before a digit can be collected.

exten => s,n,Read(MYCODE,,1,n,1,5)

I reverted back to Asterisk 20.5.0 and it works again.

Just FYI, known issue at [bug]: Application Read() returns immediately · Issue #565 · asterisk/asterisk (github.com) and it was resolved with utils: Make behavior of ast_strsep* match strsep. by jcolp · Pull Request #568 · asterisk/asterisk (github.com). It's been merged with all active branches. Just don't know when the new release will be pushed.

Installers on incrediblepbx.com back-rev'd to Asterisk 20.5.0 for the time being. Thanks.

Bug report submitted with the Asterisk team. I'm not feeling it when it comes to applying a patch. I'll wait for them to roll the fix into a 20.6.x release.

Of course I searched for a bug but nothing actually referenced Read() so I didn't find it. Not being even slightly familiar with the internals of Asterisk, I would never surmise from the bug document that it had any relation to my issue.
