[kde-solaris] Re: Unhelpful error building dcop in kdelibs

If you need bash to run the Makefile,
then the Makefile does not follow
the gnu makefile recommendations,
and thus should be fixed.

Please have a look at the GNU make documentation.

GNU make: Makefile Basics
  14.1 General Conventions for Makefiles

http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/make_123.html#SEC127

Bourne shell, NOT Bourne again shell!

Help spreading the awareness about this!
