  - #126 /bin/sh vs /bin/bash scripting inconsistancy <-- You are here.

In src/algebra/makefile.pamphlet, is a

@ if [ "${NOISE}" == "" ] ; then

construction. ${NOISE} contains -o foo, and /bin/sh (not bash) doesn't like it.

Both /bin/sh (BSD) and /bin/bash like

 @ if [ -z "${NOISE}" ]; then

which is the functional equivalent.

The result is a boatload of warnings in src/algebra --markm, Fri, 18 Mar 2005 15:30:50 -0600 reply
