一般Linux发行版自带的bash版本都比较老，如果要体验一些新特征就无法实现，比如关联数组，需要bash 4.0以上，所以需要升级，方法很简单只需编译安装即可。
了解系统当前bash的版本
[root@mail ~]# /bin/bash -version
GNU bash, version 3.2.25(1)-release (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu)
Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
bash下载地址：http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/
安装升级bash
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/bash-4.2.tar.gz
tar zxvf bash-4.2.tar.gz
cd bash-4.2
./configure
make
make install
因为bash默认是安装在/usr/local/bin/目录下，所以需要创建一个链接到 /bin/目录下，安装完毕后需要重启生效！
mv /bin/bash /bin/bash.bak; ln -s /usr/local/bin/bash /bin/bash
[root@mail ~]# /bin/bash -version
GNU bash, version 4.2.0(1)-release (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)
