Hi,
I have rebuilt bash 1.14.6 and 1.14.7 and it builds on hte first try.
The only problem is it is huge compared to the existing bash (1.14.5)
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 299296 Nov 2 1995 /bin/bash
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root root 1506543 Sep 2 21:00 bash
Quite a difference!
Now I have not installed the new bash, but it does run. Is there an
option I should use to compress it? Is .6 and up that much bigger?
Any one else see this?
All of the other shells are in line with the original:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 61217 Nov 2 1995 /bin/ash*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 299296 Nov 2 1995 /bin/bash*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 104864 Nov 2 1995 /bin/csh*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 154889 Oct 31 1995 /bin/ksh*
-rwx------ 1 root root 44 Jan 22 1996 /bin/tail.sh*
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root root 252496 Nov 2 1995 /bin/tcsh*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 293865 Nov 2 1995 /bin/zsh*
