Hi,
For DECstations running Ultrix, /bin/sh isn't the "standard"
shell (drat...). However, the DEC supplied /bin/sh5 does the right thing.
Building the configuration in the Ultrix environment requires that the
Configure and helper/* scripts be changed to #!/bin/sh5 rather than #!/bin/sh
This can easily be accomplished with a simple 'Build.ultrix' script, which
could be added to your distribution in the src/ directory, with a note
in the INSTALL file to use this for Ultrix rather than Configure:
#!/bin/sh5
# name: Build.ultrix
#
# for Apache web server sources
# modify the Configure scripts to use /bin/sh5 instead of /bin/sh
# for the Ultrix environment, and run Configure afterwards as normal:
echo 'modifying scripts for Ultrix /bin/sh5'
for i in Configure helpers/GuessOS helpers/PrintPath; do
cp $i .jnk
sed -e 's/sh/sh5/' .jnk > $i
chmod +x $i
done
rm -f .jnk
# run Configure:
./Configure
# the end :-)
Cheers,
