Bash has documentation. If implementation does not match documentation you can file a bug as much as you can against a POSIX-compliant shell. With bash being much more active project than most POSIX-compliant shells the bug is even much more likely to get resolved. And unlike POSIX-compliant shells bash has BASH_VERSION which tells you *exactly* what you are getting in case you need to support multiple versions that behave differently.
And if you're in need of writing shell scripts that are specific to bash versions, you're free to require /bin/bash as interpreter.
It is not always clear how to do that. I thought there is a way to switch rpm spec scriptlets to different shell but did not find how to do that for %build.
You can specify it via the %__spec_build_cmd macro. For instance, you could add a
%define __spec_build_cmd /bin/bash -e
Yes, that's helpful. If we get these alternatives I will add it to the compatibility cruft block together with the %license handling. Thanks Michal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
