configure: test -a|o is not POSIX #189

Closed concatime closed 3 years ago

concatime commented 3 years ago

I faced test: too many arguments when building Linux-PAM using sbase. This is due to a non-POSIX syntax test ... -a ... and test … -o ….

The XSI extensions specifying the -a and -o binary primaries and the '(' and ')' operators have been marked obsolescent.

While building eudev using sbase utils and stripped dash (no internal [, no internal test, etc.).
