(IMPORTANT/URGENT) Regarding Missing Files in bash source code?
Dear Person-in-Charge I am facing problems trying to compile Bash 3.2.57 for Mac OS. I am choosing to compile this because that's the default version of my Bash executable that was shipped with my OS. All the problems have got to do with missing includes. Please see: gcc -DPROGRAM=bash -DCONF_HOSTTYPE=i386 -DCONF_OSTYPE=darwin17.7.0 -DCONF_MACHTYPE=i386-apple-darwin17.7.0 -DCONF_VENDOR=apple -DLOCALEDIR=/usr/local/share/locale -DPACKAGE=bash -DSHELL -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DMACOSX -I. -I. -I./include -I./lib -I./lib/intl -I/Volumes/Untitled-2-bigger/zzDEVELOP/bash/bash-3.2.57-BUILD/lib/intl -g -O2 -c version.c version.c:27:10: fatal error: 'version.h' file not found #include "version.h" gcc -DPROGRAM=bash -DCONF_HOSTTYPE=i386 -DCONF_OSTYPE=darwin17.7.0 -DCONF_MACHTYPE=i386-apple-darwin17.7.0 -DCONF_VENDOR=apple -DLOCALEDIR=/usr/local/share/locale -DPACKAGE=bash -DSHELL -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DMACOSX -I. -I. -I./include -I./lib -I./lib/intl -I/Volumes/Untitled-2-bigger/zzDEVELOP/bash/bash-3.2.57-BUILD/lib/intl -g -O2 -c jobs.c jobs.c:72:10: fatal error: 'builtins/builtext.h' file not found #include "builtins/builtext.h" I double-checked the original folder in http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/bash-3.2.57.tar.gz. It's true these files are missing. May I know why is this so, and how this can be rectified? I see there is folder of patches. However I am new to do this and not sure how to make use of the patch. Is there a guide on how to do this, if patches is the solution?

Ok noted. By the way, I do have another related problem. Can you help me with it? When I run make (I run it with the -i option), I see the following output for the first invoked command: bison -y -d ./parse.y ./parse.y: warning: 1 shift/reduce conflict [-Wconflicts-sr] bison: /usr/local/Cellar/bison/3.3.2/share/bison/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4: cannot open: No such file or directory make: [y.tab.c] Error 1 (ignored) May I know what does the last line mean? I understand from https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Error-Messages.html that it means that invoking y.tab.c returned an error code of 1. The thing is, there's no command that involves the file y.tab.c? I don't really understand how y.tab.c came into the picture.

Dear Mr/Ms Chet Ramey Thank you for your response. Just to confirm if I got your reply right, are you saying that y.tab.c is part of bison, and not the bash source code?
