I'm very sorry for the noice; you must have seen this a lot then (though I had not been able to find anything on the net, probably because the search terms are too general and the results I'm looking for are drowned). > BTW, it's probably good to skip this test if the brokeness can be > easily detected at run time, though I have no idea how to do that. Since I don't want my script to modify the sources... Is it possible to turn off this particular test, so it will be skipped ? -I'm thinking something in this direction: supply SKIP_CHECK="lang-bash" for make or some --disable-check=bash-lang for configure ? Otherwise, I *could* of course do a "make check" and then grep the output for "FAIL", if there's only one, and it's "lang-bash", then I could proceed, otherwise stop the build. ;) > Is this still the case on Mac OS X 10.10? Sadly, I am not able to run any Mac OS X later than 10.5.8, because I am using PowerPC based machines. 10.6 and later is intel-only. > So, as long as other builds don't depend on the bash translation > feature, I think you don't need to worry about it. Thank you for all this information; it's very helpful. -And thank you for all the work you're doing; it's highly appreciated! :) Love Jens
