[PATCH] libtool-cross/native: Force usage of bash due to sstate inconsistencies

[PATCH] libtool-cross/native: Force usage of bash due to sstate inconsistencies

[Richard Purdie]

Scenario:
a) libtool script is built on system with bash as /bin/sh
b) machine B installs sstate from build a)
c) machine B has dash as /bin/sh

In this scenario, the script fails to work properly since its expecting
/bin/sh to have bash like syntax and it no longer does have it.

This patch forces the configure process to use /bin/bash, not /bin/sh
and hence allows the scripts to work correctly when used from sstate.

Does this work for Fedora, using bash in /usr/bin/bash?

Yes, I think so, on Fedora:

$ readlink -f /bin/
/usr/bin


/bin is a symlink which points to /usr/bin.

Shouldn't oe-core commit 367a19aaf31bcf997f10d045e7954cc800189052 fix
that already? I don't see this issue on our builders since
367a19aaf31bcf997f10d045e7954cc800189052 was merged.
