From: cseawood AT qualcomm DOT com (Christopher Seawood) Subject: #!/bin/sh troubles 8 Dec 1998 01:52:49 -0800 Message-ID: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com I just uninstalled b20 and installed b20.1 and autoconf stopped working. (Actually, it never quite worked under b20, either.) I copied b20.1's sh.exe to /bin/sh and cp removed the execute permissions. Chmod'ing the binary did not work either. So I moved /bin/sh to /bin/sh.exe. Autoconf runs and spits 6 lines of control chars, each ending with ": not found". Then it spits out /bin/sh.exe: 11: Syntax error: ")" unexpected. I removed it and copied bash.exe to /bin/sh.exe. Then I got this error: /bin/sh.exe: /bin/sh.exe: cannot execute binary file Using 'sh /usr/bin/autoconf' or 'bash /usr/bin/autoconf' works fine though but I can't quite build a rpm that way.
