Summary | 0003518: /bin/bash is not portable for running Zandronum testing from Doomseeker; this doesn't work with OpenBSD's base operating system | ||
Revision | 2018-09-24 19:29 by WubTheCaptain | ||
Description | /bin/bash is not POSIX-portable. This means running Zandronum testing binaries requires installing bash as a package, or manually changing Doomseeker's generated #!/bin/bash shell scripts to use a POSIX sh interpreter #!/bin/sh (or equivalent). Changing Doomseeker's script generation code from #!/bin/bash to #!/bin/sh should remain compatible with bash. |

Changing Doomseeker's script generation code from #!/bin/bash to #!/bin/sh should remain compatible with bash and POSIX sh. |

Additional Information | Not sure if this is a bug or a suggestion. The suggestion is "Remove /bin/bash dependency from Zandronum testing binary shell scripts", and this is the bug behind it. I make assumptions Zandronum can be run on OpenBSD, and bash not is not available on the operating system (although it is available as a package). OpenBSD uses Korn shell (ksh), which is POSIX sh compatible with additions. |
