Description Thomas Klausner 2009-05-26 16:37:38 UTC
The configure script uses the unportable bash "==" comparison operator for test(1). It is not supported by most other shells or even test(1) from GNU coreutils. Please use "=" instead.

Sigh. Those always creep in. And bash conveniently accepts == without warning even if you run it in "posix mode".

fixed in git. thanks.
