#3661: Version.sh might not run on platforms where /bin/sh is not bash
---------------------+----------------------
Reporter: marcusk | Owner: mutt-dev
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone:
Component: build | Version: 1.5.22
Keywords: patch |
---------------------+----------------------
The version.sh script uses features implemented in bash and possibly other
shells. This could prevent the script from running successfully on
platforms where /bin/sh is not bash. The build system does not check if
the script terminated successfully, and if it didn't the MUTT_VERSION
variable in the configure script might be the empty string instead of the
actual version.
This was at least the case when I built mutt 1.5.22 and HEAD on Solaris 10
and AIX 5.3.
