help help bash. No more Terminal on Mac OS X
Hello, Please help or tell me where I can find help. yesterday evening I installed BASH v2.05 from the website: http://www.osxgnu.org/software/Shells/bash/ Since then I cannot even open a Terminal in X11. This is a MAJOR DISASTER! Is there a way to de-install BASH or set my system back to the way it was before the install? I really need a working Terminal... :-( My system: MAC OS X Version 10.3.8 Build 7U16 on a dual G5 PowerPC. I can open, but not use, the Console program, I get no prompt! However I do get the follwing output on the console: Mac OS X Version 10.3.8 (Build 7U16) 2005-03-23 07:56:31 +0100 2005-03-23 07:56:31.821 loginwindow[196] FSResolveAliasWithMountFlags returned err = -43 2005-03-23 07:57:50.036 Virex 7.2[284] CFLog (0): Usage of CFHTTPReadStreamSetRedirectsAutomatically is deprecated; call SetProperty(kCFStreamPropertyHTTPShouldAutoredirect, kCFBooleanTrue/False) instead /Users/geoffreyskennedy/Documents/Before April 1st/Bauma 2004/Working Plans/C3 Bauma 2004 C3v10.mcd could not be opened - permission denied /Users/geoffreyskennedy/Documents/Before April 1st/email/IHM IN/ihm Daimler Chrysler email 2004-02-12/040204_ihm-ansichten.pdf could not be opened - permission denied /Users/geoffreyskennedy/Documents/Before April 1st/email/IHM IN/ihm Daimler Chrysler email 2004-02-12/040204_ihm_abhaengepkte.pdf could not be opened - permission denied /Users/geoffreyskennedy/Documents/Before April 1st/email/IHM IN/ihm Daimler Chrysler email 2004-02-12/Hallenplan.pdf could not be opened - permission denied /Users/geoffreyskennedy/Documents/Geoff/nina/Para Traduccion.zip/TECOH INGLES.DOC is corrupted.

I really need a working Terminal... :-( If you installed the OS X package, then that's more of an OS X question than a bash question. Check in an OS X forum. > dyld: /bin/bash Undefined symbols: > _tgetent > _tgetflag > _tgetnum > _tgetstr > _tgoto > _tputs It looks like your bash binary needs to be, but isn't, linked with the (n)curses library. You might have better luck if you build it from source yourself. paul ___ Bug-bash mailing list Bug-bash@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-bash
unset and pathname expansion
It seems that pathname expansion combined with array syntax is quite tricky. And the bash manual seems to encourage an error prone syntax. I would propose to replace the sentence (from bash(1) GNU bash, version 3.00.14): > The unset builtin is used to destroy arrays. unset name[subscript] > destroys the array element at index subscript. by: unset name[subscript] has an unpredictable result depending on the existence of a file named: names or nameu or nameb ... the settings of options nullglob , failglob , extglob , and the environment variable GLOBIGNORE; but unset "name[subscript]" destroys the array element at index subscript.

Thanks. This was fixed very soon after bash-3.0 was released. The fix will be in bash-3.1. The error you saw had no effect on bash being built successfully.

This is a MAJOR > DISASTER! 1. Remove /bin/bash, or move it to the trash 2. Copy /bin/sh to /bin/bash Since Apple ships MacOS X with bash-2.05b as /bin/sh and /bin/bash, there's no reason to install an older version yourself.
