From 8435da9d8106513acd5c87b74f8a928073f2cd5d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Meyering Date: Fri, 7 Nov 2014 08:34:42 -0800 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] tests: avoid printf+\xHH portability trap * tests/word-multibyte: Using the bourne shell's printf function with strings like "\xHH\xHH" happens to work for most interactive shells, but not for dash. That is not portable. Use our hex_printf_ awk wrapper instead. Without this change, this test would fail on a Debian system for which /bin/sh is configured to be "dash". --- tests/word-multibyte | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/tests/word-multibyte b/tests/word-multibyte index 2a55406..f2caf97 100755 --- a/tests/word-multibyte +++ b/tests/word-multibyte @@ -4,7 +4,7 @@ require_en_utf8_locale_ -printf '\xc3\xa1\n' > in || framework_failure_ +hex_printf_ '\xc3\xa1\n' > in || framework_failure_ LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 export LC_ALL -- 2.1.2
