There is some stuff to do that already in Autotools. I know it will search /usr/xpg4/bin for the right grep (that might require us to add a macro). Okay, I found a Solaris system at work ... what I've found is that: - It automatically found grep in /usr/xpg4/bin, so if we use GREP everywhere the Right Thing should happen - It set SHELL to /bin/bash, but I don't know if bash is installed on Solaris by default. It's also not clear that it will search the xpg4 path for it. Oliver, what does SHELL get set to in the nmh Makefile? It might be as simple as using $(SHELL) appropriately. I tried that on the tests (I set TESTS_ENVIRONMENT to end in $(SHELL)) and that helped ... but there are plenty of other problems in the nmh tests on Solaris. Not sure it's worth fixing all of those. --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
