Bug ID: 30196
Summary: [0.189 regression] configure.ac contains Bashisms
Product: elfutils
Version: unspecified
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: sourceware at mattwhitlock dot name

elfutils-0.189-fix-configure-bashisms.patch
Autoconf scripts are supposed to be written in POSIX-compatible shell language.
elfutils commits 0ffe2874e75d48cb88936e119e5284ff2bf664d9 and
3fa98a6f29b0f370e32549ead7eb897c839af980 introduced Bashisms to configure.ac
that cause errors when /bin/sh is not Bash.
Example error when /bin/sh is Dash:
./configure: 8748: test: xyes: unexpected operator
The cause of the error is the use of a non-existent == operator in expressions
passed to the 'test' built-in command. POSIX shell specifies only an = operator
for testing string equality.
Please make the corrections indicated in the attached patch.
