FYI. ----- Forwarded message from Pete Fritchman <petef@databits.net> ----- | Date: Sun, 23 Dec 2001 04:59:49 -0500 | From: Pete Fritchman <petef@databits.net> | To: Sergey Babkin <babkin@FreeBSD.org> | Cc: cvs-committers@FreeBSD.org, cvs-all@FreeBSD.org | Subject: Re: cvs commit: src/bin/sh redir.c | User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i | | ++ 21/12/01 18:40 -0800 - Sergey Babkin: | | babkin 2001/12/21 18:40:58 PST | | | | Modified files: | | bin/sh redir.c | | Log: | | Added ability to do ">/dev/stdout". The apsfilter people are anxious | | to get it MFCed in time for release 4.5. | | | | MFC after: 2 weeks | | | | Revision Changes Path | | 1.14 +2 -4 src/bin/sh/redir.c | | This change breaks autoconf (and probably more things). Autoconf is a | big ugly shell script, and uses some redirection magic to send things to | the 'configure' file (which it generates from configure.in): | | if test $# -eq 0; then | exec 4> configure; chmod +x configure | else | exec 4>&1 | fi | | I'm not a shell script guru by any means, but when I was debugging this | problem I saw this redirect stuff in autoconf and thought of this | change (because everything was working OK on a -current from dec 1st, | and just broke today when I upgraded to today's -current). | | Before redir.c rev 1.14, configure gets created by autoconf and has the | configure script in it. With this patch, configure gets created but the | actual contents go to stdout. | | -pete | | -- | Pete Fritchman [petef@(databits.net|freebsd.org|csh.rit.edu)] | finger petef@databits.net for PGP key ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Pete Fritchman [petef@(databits.net|freebsd.org|csh.rit.edu)] finger petef@databits.net for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
