Hi!

----

1. Is it allowed to use something like this in the OS/Net Makefiles:
-- snip --
# use "shcomp" if present to compile the shell script,
# otherwise just copy it:
$(ROOTUSR)/usr/bin/foo: foo.sh
        if [[ -x /usr/bin/shcomp ]] ; then \
                shcomp foo.sh >$(ROOTUSR)/usr/bin/foo \
        else \
                cp foo.sh $(ROOTUSR)/usr/bin/foo \
        fi

install: $(ROOTUSR)/usr/bin/foo
-- snip --
... I belive the answer is "no" ... but I better ask before starting to
add some kind of staged putback monstrosity...

2. The same question for the SFW gate - AFAIK the answer should be "yes"
since stuff like "configure" could pick-up "shcomp" automagically
anyway...

Bye,
Roland
