148558 - /usr/local/bin/mozilla: test: argument expected

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 57866

(SeaMonkey :: Build Config, defect, P2)

Description

[Paul Boven]

After doing a 'make install' on Solaris 8, /usr/local/bin/mozilla will not
start because on line 53, 'until test $found != 0 ! -L "$progname"' fails.
The /bin/sh built-in test does not support the -L function on Solaris 8
(although the manpage claims it still does, so I think this is a Solaris bug)

sh$ test -L "/usr/local/bin/mozilla"; echo $?
  test: argument expected
sh$ /usr/bin/test -L "/usr/local/bin/mozilla"; echo $?
  1

Substituting /usr/bin/test in stead of test fixes the problem, but appartently
/usr/local/bin/mozilla is a generated file, have to see where it comes from.

(for completeness sake: I did 'gmake DESTDIR=`pwd`/fakeroot install', built a
Sun package, and installed that package onto the system instead of a direct
'make install')

Argh. I thought that I had fixed that once before.  Must've regressed it when I
converted mozilla to mozilla.in.

I found this problem too.  I did a truss and it appears that I am missing a
shell script it wants:

bash-2.03# /usr/local/bin/mozilla
/usr/local/bin/mozilla: test: argument expected

And here is the truss:

waitid(P_PID, 8972, 0xFFBEE6C8, WEXITED|WTRAPPED) = 0
stat64("/usr/local/bin/run-mozilla.sh", 0xFFBEE5E0) Err#2 ENOENT
pipe()						= 3 [4]
fork()						= 8973
close(4)					= 0
read(3, " / u s r / l o c a l / b".., 128)	= 15
read(3, 0xFFBEE5C8, 128)			= 0
ioctl(3, TCGETA, 0xFFBEE44C)			Err#22 EINVAL
ioctl(3, TCGETA, 0xFFBEE4AC)			Err#22 EINVAL
close(3)					= 0
waitid(P_PID, 8973, 0xFFBEE4A8, WEXITED|WTRAPPED) = 0
/usr/local/bin/mozillawrite(2, " / u s r / l o c a l / b".., 22)	= 22
: write(2, " :  ", 2)				= 2
testwrite(2, " t e s t", 4)				= 4
: write(2, " :  ", 2)				= 2
argument expectedwrite(2, " a r g u m e n t   e x p".., 17)	= 17

write(2, "\n", 1)				= 1
llseek(0, 0, SEEK_CUR)				= 1317961
_exit(1)

I could not find 'run-mozilla.sh' anywhere in the source code either.
