[Ports] Can't use configure in a git cloned repository? #62

Closed PF94 closed 1 year ago

I'm assuming it's trying to look for [duckos trunk]/ports/build/bash/bash/configure, since i could get configure working if i instead specified https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/bash-5.2.15.tar.gz. However, I'm trying to use a git repository for this potential bash port instead of a tarball because I'm not experienced in patch files.

export DOWNLOAD_FILE="../bash" seems to fix the problem, but it feels hacky.

Weird question - if you remove the ports/build/bash directory and try again, does it work? It should be cloning directly there and not into ports/build/bash/bash, but if the folder is already there it may do that.

it is cloning into ports/build/bash, without ports/build/bash/bash existing. adding export DOWNLOAD_FILE="../bash" fixes the issue, but it feels hacky.

image (modified bash a little bit, it builds until plural.c due to this "plural.h" file that doesn't exist at all)

I've added the ability to specify the path for the configure script, so you should be able to fix this by using export CONFIGURE_PATH="./configure" now.
