Leo Simons commented on GUMP-88:
--------------------------------

why is it bad to depend on bash?

>          Key: GUMP-88
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUMP-88
>      Project: Gump
>         Type: Bug
>   Components: Python
>  Environment: Solaris v2.8
> Gump trunk
> Python v2.4
>     Reporter: Graham Leggett

>
> If an attempt is made to check the gump code out of svn onto a solaris8 machine with python v2.4 installed, the following error results:
> bash-2.03$ ./gump validate
> ./gump: function: not found
>       Run the DTD validation tools on the metadata.
>       Usage:
>         ./gump validate
> ./gump: function: not found
> ./gump: validate
> Adding the python -d flag, results in the following:
> bash-2.03$ python -d gump validate
>   File "gump", line 25
>     function usage
>                  ^
> SyntaxError: invalid syntax
> Checking out the same gump code from svn onto a MacOSX machine and running it against python v2.3 shows that the same gump script works.
> It looks like gump in it's current form is not compatible with python v2.4.
