Variable substitution eats characters on end of line (closing brackets get eaten)

[indyjo]

In files that are processed by FilteredFile, and in lines which are processed by Util.replaceVariables(), characters immediately preceding the end of line get eaten if they are a prefix of the opening or closing token (by default, [[ and ]]).

E.g., a postinst with the following content:

#!/bin/sh

if [ -e some_file ]
then
    echo blabla
fi 

gets mangled into

#!/bin/sh

if [ -e some_file 
then
    echo blabla
fi 

(notice the missing closing brace).

Reason seems to be Utils.replaceVariables(), where characters that match opening and closing braces are withheld from output until it is determined whether a complete token is read. On end of line, these characters are not flushed.

Observed in 1.1.1
Workaround for me: Don't close lines with a ] character.
