Bug 285449 – >www-servers/apache-2.2.11-r2 configdump show "lynx not found!"

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Marcin Mirosław 2009-09-18 13:36:51 UTC]

I've been testing it with apache 2.2.11-r2 and 2.2.13.
/etc/init.d/apache2 configdump
returns:
* lynx not found! you need to emerge www-client/lynx

The problem is in init script, in this line:
elif ! type -p ${LYNX} 2>&1 >/dev/null; then .......

$ type -p lynx ; echo $?
/usr/bin/lynx
0

Variable LYNX has value "lynx -dump" :
$ type -p lynx -dump ; echo $?
/usr/bin/lynx
1

Problem is related to bash. bash-3 returns zero in second example, but bash-4 returns error code 1.
Fullstatus doesn't work too.
I'm wondering, how many init scripts are using this bash function?

Reproducible: Always
