P.S. If using Bash 3.1, is it okay to leave the bash 3.2 ncurses patch, or should it not be used? Assuming that the patch will be needed for bash 3.2, it would be nice to leave it for a possible update later, and as far as the temporary system goes, I installed ncurses with the patch and I wouldn't want it to create problems with bash 3.1.
The idea is that bash-3.2 has had regressions on accepted behavior, like that in the ncurses scripts. As these issues are identified in bash, the maintainer will release patches that fix it. That's why we carry around those monster patches for bash. So, the answer is, no you shouldn't add that patch if you're using bash-3.1. The ncurses patch is a workaround until bash-3.2 gets fixed up to do the right thing. -- Dan _______________________________________________ Clfs-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cross-lfs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clfs-dev
