It's pretty ironic that a Solaris shell should warn about `...`, with Autoconf using
that construct mostly because shells like Solaris <=10 /bin/sh does not cope with
$(...). Oh well. Can the shell be told to not output these warnings somehow? I took a
quick look at <http://dlc.sun.com/osol/man/downloads/current/> but couldn't find a
switch or environment variable to do so.
I assume that this OpenSolaris system has the "new" ksh93 shell, which is
vastly different than previous Solaris /bin/sh and includes much more than a shell (it is
a shell + utilities). The project page for this is at
http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+ksh93%2Dintegration/
Yes, it appears so. It links to a file ksh93.
bash-3.2$ ls -l /bin/sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Oct 26 17:20 /bin/sh -> ../../sbin/sh
bash-3.2$ ls -l /sbin/sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Oct 26 17:17 /sbin/sh ->
../usr/bin/i86/ksh93
But ksh93 does not complain about `...`, on neither X86, nor Sparc Solaris,
look:
address@hidden ~]# sed -n -e 1p -e \$p /etc/release
Solaris Express Community Edition snv_122 SPARC
Assembled 24 August 2009
address@hidden ~]# /usr/bin/ksh93
address@hidden:~# echo =`sleep 1`=
==
address@hidden:~#
It looks like something goes wrong in other place.
