When I execute that line, I get $ SRC_URI = "git://bb/foo.git;protocol=ssh;tag=v1.1.0;lfs=0;subpath=pctrlmc/c2cmtd" SRC_URI: command not found $ (Give or take the gratuitous line-wrap inserted by Thunderbird) > What I would like to get is the "v1.1.0" of the "tag=" portion I know nothing about perl, so I can't help with that. Can you just use sed? $ SRC_URI="git://bb/foo.git;protocol=ssh;tag=v1.1.0;lfs=0;subpath=pctrlmc/c2cmtd" $ echo $SRC_URI | sed 's/.*;tag=//' | sed 's/;.*//' v1.1.0 $ -- Michael F.
