Hi,
please help.
I am desparately in need for help on the following piece of
code within a 'configure' file.
It's run under '/bin/sh' which is a symlink to '/bin/bash'
but I known that real experts are reading this mailing list.
The following code fails in the 2nd line with
syntax error near unexpected token `('
../htmlwidget2/configure: line 4957: ` case `(ac_space=' '; set | grep ac_space) 2>&1` in'
here are the lines 4956 ff
(set) 2>&1 |
case `(ac_space=' '; set | grep ac_space) 2>&1` in
*ac_space=\ *)
# `set' does not quote correctly, so add quotes (double-quote substitution
# turns \\\\ into \\, and sed turns \\ into \).
sed -n \
-e "s/'/'\\\\''/g" \
-e "s/^\\([a-zA-Z0-9_]*_cv_[a-zA-Z0-9_]*\\)=\\(.*\\)/\\1=\${\\1='\\2'}/p"
;;
*)
# `set' quotes correctly as required by POSIX, so do not add quotes.
sed -n -e 's/^\([a-zA-Z0-9_]*_cv_[a-zA-Z0-9_]*\)=\(.*\)/\1=${\1=\2}/p'
;;
esac >> confcache
I admit I don't really understand what's going on and even what's meant
to be going on.
Many thanks for your help,
