I understand it extremely well. >proposed patch affect your scenario? This is not about CONFIG_SHELL, It is. Straight from your diff: > for gl_cv_posix_shell in \ >- "$CONFIG_SHELL" "$SHELL" /bin/sh /bin/bash /bin/ksh /bin/sh5 no; do >+ /bin/sh /bin/bash /bin/ksh /bin/sh5 "$CONFIG_SHELL" "$SHELL" no; do This makes $CONFIG_SHELL no longer the preferred POSIX shell. This breaks when a system has a /bin/sh that passes all gnulib tests (and thus is used as POSIX_SHELL) but has other bugs that make it unusable, for example. The user can then no longer over‐ ride this bad choice of the configury. bye, //mirabilos -- „Cool, /usr/share/doc/mksh/examples/uhr.gz ist ja ein Grund, mksh auf jedem System zu installieren.“ -- XTaran auf der OpenRheinRuhr, ganz begeistert (EN: “[…]uhr.gz is a reason to install mksh on every system.”) _______________________________________________ Reproducible-builds mailing list Reproducible-builds@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/reproducible-builds
