bug#17774: AIX and lbracket ([) program - will not install on AIX using installp

2014-06-18 Thread Michael Felt
Well, you guys are the experts. I was trying to be smart - thinking that lbracket 'required' the closing right bracket to keep the shell syntax checkers happy. Maybe I am expecting too much from my shells need to check syntax. FYI - It seems to be working as expected, rather designed - so I shall

bug#17774: AIX and lbracket ([) program - will not install on AIX using installp

2014-06-18 Thread Michael Felt
revisted my 8.15 package in detail. Seems that two years ago I had already done something special for coreutils - so my apology - not a bug, just something in the way. I will find a way to make it transparent for installp. My question: once done, would you be interested in what I have done to

bug#17773: AIX build errors with coreutils-8.22

2014-06-18 Thread Michael Felt
Curious why you are calling this a compiler bug. I am not a POSIX nerd, but it looks as if the old code was compiler independent, and now it is dependent on something. Just one difference in od.c that shows a change in identifer conventions. What is the origin of the _GL_* identifiers? Unix or

I am confused by what is in git regarding ftoastr.h The enum code has been around forever and not caused a problem. I think the problem lies elsewhere because version 8.20 builds fine. root@x093:[/data/prj/gnu/coreutils]diff ./coreutils-8.22/lib/ftoastr.h ./coreutils-8.15/lib/ftoastr.h 3c3

So, having looked at the -E output of the compiles I guess it has something to do with how enum defines it results. And how that gets parsed here: Goes over my head in any case. #define _GL_FLOAT_STRLEN_BOUND_L(t, pointlen) \ (1 + _GL_##t##_PREC_BOUND + pointlen + 1
