Bug 58755 – app-shells/bash-3.0 compatibility problems

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Imad R. Faiad 2004-07-29 03:37:57 UTC]

app-shells/bash-3.0 cause gcc to fail to compile
due to syntax changes in some commands. e.g. trap
masking bash-3.0 fixed the problem
hth

creating ./config.status
creating Makefile
creating intl/Makefile
creating fixinc/Makefile
creating gccbug
creating mklibgcc
creating mkheaders
creating auto-host.h
trap: usage: trap [-lp] [[arg] signal_spec ...]

!!! ERROR: sys-devel/gcc-3.3.5 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 540, Exitcode 1
!!! (no error message)

and another things, other commands cause problems too, though not fatal.
you may want to look into the tail and head commands
e.g.
checking assembler hidden support... head: `-1' option is obsolete; use `-n 1' since this will be removed in the future
yes
checking assembler leb128 support... head: `-1' option is obsolete; use `-n 1' since this will be removed in the future
yes
checking assembler eh_frame optimization... head: `-1' option is obsolete; use `-n 1' since this will be removed in the future
tail: `-3' option is obsolete; use `-n 3' since this will be removed in the future
yes

the head/tail problems are known and has nothing to do with gcc ... they're part of coreutils
