* ULTRIX build fails with shell errors, such as "bad substitution"
and "test: argument expected"
The problem is caused by ULTRIX /bin/sh supporting only original
Bourne shell syntax/semantics, and the trouble is that the vast
majority is so accustomed to more modern syntax, that very few
people [if any] would recognize the ancient syntax even as valid.
This inevitably results in non-trivial scripts breaking on ULTRIX,
and OpenSSL isn't an exclusion. Fortunately there is workaround,
hire /bin/ksh to do the job /bin/sh fails to do.
1. Trick make(1) to use /bin/ksh by setting up following environ-
ment variables *prior* you execute ./Configure and make:
PROG_ENV=POSIX
MAKESHELL=/bin/ksh
export PROG_ENV MAKESHELL
or if your shell is csh-compatible:
setenv PROG_ENV POSIX
setenv MAKESHELL /bin/ksh
2. Trick /bin/sh to use alternative expression evaluator. Create
following 'test' script for example in /tmp:
#!/bin/ksh
${0##*/} "$@"
Then 'chmod a+x /tmp/test; ln /tmp/test /tmp/[' and *prepend*
your $PATH with chosen location, e.g. PATH=/tmp:$PATH. Alter-
natively just replace system /bin/test and /bin/[ with the
above script.
