ISTR tripping myself up similarly on that "/usr/bin/yacc -> /usr/bin/yacc"
output format. The test in book:

----
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/7.6/prologue/hostreqs.html
--
if [ -e /usr/bin/yacc ];
  then echo "/usr/bin/yacc -> `readlink -f /usr/bin/yacc`";
  else echo "yacc not found"; fi
----

, does output "/usr/bin/yacc -> /usr/bin/yacc" (ohne '"') if yacc is a
real file.


Similarly for the awk/gawk test.


Fwiw, have never liked the method of those tests - but not my books :)  .
