Hello Julien, The build of AutoGen _does_ require a Bourne compatible shell. There are some bootstrap scripts also that require BASH, but these are completely unnecessary for anyone not building from CVS. I have now modified "config/bootstrap" to check for bash and rerun itself if the shell is not BASH (or one that understands ``set -o posix''). This should not cause a problem for building the product. The code fragment below is Bourne-compatible, so I think you were using a non-Bourne-compatible shell. Don't do that. *A* shell is required, as are a rudamentary make and an ANSI-cc compiler. Aren't these "assumed" dependencies?
Cheers - Bruce
