Branko Čibej commented on SVN-4654: ----------------------------------- You mentioned nine-year-old OS ... anyway, do you actually have a POSIX-compatible shell that accepts {{$()}} on HP-UX 10.20? When I used that back in the day, I'm pretty sure the default Korn-like shell only handled backticks. Our configure scripts are supposed to be platform independent, but Linux-specific stuff has probably crept in in places, since most people don't have access to HP-UX or Solaris or AIX. > configure: command substitution for SVN_REMOVE_STANDARD_LIB_DIRS fails with > non-POSIX backticks on HP-UX > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SVN-4654 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SVN-4654 > Project: Subversion > Issue Type: Bug > Components: compile, install > Affects Versions: 1.9.4, trunk > Environment: $ uname -a > HP-UX blnn724x B.11.31 U ia64 HP-UX > Reporter: Michael Osipov > Attachments: SVN-4654.patch, configure.err.tar.gz > > > When running {{configure}} on HP-UX, you see several times > {{./configure\[4880\]: : Execute permission denied.}} and > {{./configure\[4880\]: /lib64: not found.}}. > This is caused by having the command substitution perfomed by backticks > {{LDFLAGS="`SVN_REMOVE_STANDARD_LIB_DIR(...)`"}} and not with standard POSIX > {{$()}}. > See attached trace output w/o patch and with patch applied. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
