We had that discussion lately and the results were: No objections. At least nobody did complain/wanted to keep tcsh. In fact I already planned to do a related cws after the 3.2 release (but of course I won't object if somebody else wants to do it) > [...] > Two questions remain: > > For one, the to-be-sourced scripts currently ensure that USE_SHELL's path is > in PATH, but I see no reason for that? Me neither. If the full path is given anyway... If at all: configure's job, not the one of the env-script. > For another, are there any relevant configurations where bash is not at > /bin/bash? I don't know any (but that doesn't count much I guess :-) Regarding POSIX: I already did bash-builds with the POSIXLY_CORRECT environment variable - no problem at all. (so /bin/sh could be used as a fallback, possibly with an appropriate configure-warning-message) ciao Christian --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.org
