I bet you could have figured this out too.
you probably noticed that i prefer to have as short as possible and as default as possible gar-makefiles, and fix things upstream. the reason is very simple: any line we write is work, and needs to be ported, and supported. and you are completely right: if i am not able to fix it in 10 minutes i leave it. opencsw is nice, but it is in my free time and there might be other priorities in somebodies life than hunting down some stupid shell anachronism introduced in the computer science stone age. but your statement really provoked me to look it up :) and the result was that the problem boils down to "find the absolute path of a script", http://dbaspot.com/forums/shell/379501-finding-absolute-path-script-within.html, saying: * "sh", pwd, dirname $0 can all be tricked into giving a wrong result. which then needs a workaround like your proposal. * bash gives the desired result with script_path=${0%/*} but finding the absolute path is only necessary as test.sh itself is ugly and changes directories inside itself. rupert. _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers .:: This mailing list's archive is public. ::.
