[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1787012] Re: Solaris build error: Bad string

[Michele Denber]

You are absolutely correct.  I found the right problem but the wrong
reason.  Note that:

# which tr
/usr/bin/tr
#  uname -s | tr '[/]' '[_]'
Bad string
# uname -s | /usr/xpg4/bin/tr '[/]' '[_]'
SunOS
#

So it's just another POSIX problem with Solaris, not a bug.  Solaris
provides all the POSIX stuff, it just doesn't make it the default.

  gmake then completes, returning just a "#" prompt and no error
  messages.  However, no executable is created.  Apparently, "Bad
  string" is the problem, but it is unclear what that means and where
  the two instances of it are coming from.  A web search for this
  problem returned nothing.
