Installing bash

Hi,

I have gone through various threads on ITRC but havent reached anywhere. Either the links no more exist or dont open. Please help with the bash software as well as steps to install.

I downloaded bash-4.0-rc1.tar. Untarred it and ran ./configure. Then, ran make and some messages about an unexpected '-' in siglist were being popped up. When I run make again I get following:

# make

***********************************************************
* *
* GNU bash, version 4.0.0(3)-rc1 (ia64-hp-hpux11.23)
* *
***********************************************************

if cmp -s lsignames.h signames.h ; then :; else rm -f signames.h ; cp lsignames.h signames.h ; fi

Jupinder,

I m using B.11.23 U ia64

That depot has been gunzipped, now a simple

# swinstall bash-4.0.033-ia64-11.23.depot

must install it. Hope I am correct and no reboot is required?

Re: Installing bash

Yup no reboot,
anyways it would ask for reboot if you do it via SAM so no worries.

Re: Installing bash

#swlist -l fileset -a is_reboot -s depot_name

Re: Installing bash

Well, when trying to do the same thing in a different box, I get following message:

You do not have permission for this operation. The depot owner, system ministrator, or alternate root owner may need to use the "swreg" or
"swacl" command to give you permission. Or, to manage applications
designed and packaged for nonprivileged mode, see the
"run_as_superuser" option in the "sd" man page.

I am running this as root. So the error seems strange. Couldnt find similar error anywhere on net. Help !
