Hi,
Im designing a package that uses a bash postinstall script to handle various
tasks.
When installing this script, pkgadd complains of the syntax of the bash script.
<snip>
## Executing postinstall script.
/var/sadm/pkg/PKGNAME/install/postinstall: syntax error at line 4:
`PKGNAME_GROUPS=' unexpected
pkgadd: ERROR: postinstall script did not complete successfully
</snip>
PKGNAME_GROUPS is a bash array (which bourne shell appears to not support) like
so
PKGNAME_GROUPS=(
foo
bar
)
Reading the 'Application Packaging Developers Guide'[0], it states that
installation scripts must be executable by the bourne shell.
Is there any way a installation script other than one written in sh be used
when developing packages?
