Re: Crosstool-ng on Solaris

[Thomas Jourdan <tjourdan at neuf dot fr>]

Hi all

My bad, the default shell is KSH, not bash, which may explain why the
braces are expanded. In the configure script, the shabang is /bin/sh,
which points to ksh93.

What must I conclude ? Does some of the ct-ng scripts use bash only
functions, in which case the shabang is not correct ? Or wouldn't it be
better to track and remove bash dependencies ?
