[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1090837] Re: Error in building Qemu-1.3.0 on Solaris 10

[Dipanjan Das]

Until tomorrow, I can't report back as the Solaris 10 system is in my
workplace. What I tried was to trigger ./configure from bash shell which
produced the log above and aborted. As the title already says, I tried
to build Qemu 1.3.0.

P.S. If I already use bash shell to invoke the script, do I need to
`bash ./configure ...` any more?

Title:
  Error in building Qemu-1.3.0 on Solaris 10

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  While trying to build Qemu on Oracle Solaris 10 (SPARC processor), I
  encountered the following error in the configure step:

  ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/ --install=/usr/ucb/install
  ./configure: bad substitution
  ./configure: !: not found
  ./configure: !: not found
  ./configure: !: not found
  ./configure: !: not found
  ./configure: !: not found
  ./configure: curl-config: not found
  ./configure: curl-config: not found

  As the following bug report says:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/636315, "sh" is hard-coded in the
  script. Can't the script be modified to accept a $SHELL argument to
  make use of bash or other shell during configure and make step?
