My guess is that what is intended is to create a symbolic link named
${CLFS}/bin/sh that points to ${CLFS}/bin/bash, but what the command syntax
indicates is that the link would point to relative path ./bash at command time,
which seems ambiguous.

Subject: [Clfs-support] link to bash, CLFS book
CLFS-TRUNK-SVN-20080719/ppcCLFS-TRUNK-SVN-20080719/ppc
Good morning. In section 7.3 of book CLFS-TRUNK-SVN-20080719/ppc
the command 'ln -sv bash ${CLFS}/bin/sh' fails to find bash (first arg), as
did a similar command ("ln -sv bash /tools/bin/sh") in section 6.6.1.
It's hard to tell which bash is being assigned.
Is the path to bash implied by the second argument, which is an explicit path
and filename?
I note that the other commands in this section have explicit pathnames.
Can someone please clarify?
PS build system is Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 4 (Nahant Update 4)_______________________________________________
