Thanks Arun
So that would mean a complete detailed check of all make, curses and m4
scripts ?
Are there tools available to do this ?
ciao,
Amit

There are many incompatibilities. The usual solution in large projects is
to standardize on the GNU utilities, because they work on both HP-UX
and Linux.
Alternatively, you can stick to a very basic subset of functionality that
is portable across HP-UX tools and Linux tools.
For example:
foo: foo.c
$(CC) foo.c -o foo
works on both makes. But more complex rules won't.
