If we want to just test the first directory (and I agree with that, the first directory is the language directory and in case of go libffi is duplicated), having a loop and extra var is IMHO way overkill. What about following instead? 2011-04-21 Jakub Jelinek <ja...@redhat.com> * gcc_release (maybe_build_tarfile): Don't build a tarfile if the first directory doesn't exist. --- maintainer-scripts/gcc_release.jj 2010-12-09 11:12:50.000000000 +0100 +++ maintainer-scripts/gcc_release 2011-04-21 13:51:52.471180071 +0200 @@ -253,13 +253,7 @@ build_tarfile() { maybe_build_tarfile() { dest=$1 shift - dir_exists=0 - for maybe_dir in "$@"; do - if [ -d "$maybe_dir" ]; then - dir_exists=1 - fi - done - if [ $dir_exists = 1 ]; then + if [ $# != 0 -a -d "$1" ]; then build_tarfile "$dest" "$@" else echo "Not building $dest tarfile" Jakub
