If you really need bash and don't use only POSIX compliant syntax, please call /bin/bash instead of sh. Actually, more likely this is dash failing to be POSIX compliant. dash is pdksh based right? Those ksh build scripts are fairly complicated and they work with ksh88/ksh93/bash/zsh(with sh emulation) and the /bin/sh on various Unix systems but not with pdksh. I even had to apply a fix for it to work with bash 3.1. It would be useful if you could attempt to track down which part of the build script is not running correctly under dash. The alternative might be detecting /bin/sh being dash and trying zsh/bash whatever instead. Oliver ___ All new Yahoo!

I'll try to take a look on what fails. I can send you the full buildd log if it helps. Cheers, -- Julien Danjou .''`.
