Subject: [PATCH 3/4] glibc: remove obsolete shell override for make-syscalls.sh
Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2026 17:03:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260805160320.41908-3-ross.burton@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260805160320.41908-1-ross.burton@arm.com>
SHELL was set to /bin/bash back in 2012[1] because of non-portable use
of echo in eglibc.
As this non-portable use was fixed upstream in glibc in 2015[1] we can
remove this override.
[1] oe-core 9d002f7cdc5 ("eglibc: force make to use /bin/bash")
[2] glibc 95b07fbcc7 ("Fix non-portable echo usage in sysdeps/unix/make-syscalls.sh")
