Hi,
This is really strange. I just did a buld of bash-5.0 from ftp.gnu.org. build
went well... but make install coredumped in mkdir. mkdir is in my bashrc...This
is not a new change to the bash rc file.
mkdir ()
{
dirs="$@";
for dir in $dirs;
do
/bin/mkdir -p "$dir";
done
}
make[1]: Leaving directory '/export/home/tools/bash/bash-5.0/po'
( cd /tools/bash/bash-5.0/examples/loadables && make DESTDIR= install )
make[1]: Entering directory
'/export/home/tools/bash/bash-5.0/examples/loadables'
../../support/mkinstalldirs: line 53: 1822305 Segmentation fault (core
dumped) mkdir -p -- . 2> /dev/null

../../support/mkinstalldirs: line 74: 1822313 Segmentation fault (core

make[1]: Leaving directory '/export/home/tools/bash/bash-5.0/examples/loadables'
make: [Makefile:824: install] Error 2 (ignored)
trying without the bashrc function. Sigh...
same result. bash/examples/loadables has a mkdir! Why would make install try to
mkdir for the "current" directory?
I removed mkdir from the Makefile and named it xx... make -f xx install worked!
Any thoughts?
George...
