Description padraig.obriain 2004-02-19 09:10:52 UTC
autogen.sh uses "test -e".

On Solaris, according to the man page this option is not available in sh.

This problem also applies to autogen.sh in gst-plugins.

I worked around the problem by changing -e to -f.

I replaced it with -x as I don't know if mkinstalldirs might be a
symbolic link at times.
Solaris man pages from the web claimed that one is supported.

Please reopen if not.
