From 11c34c86ca4a0a355276d675eb46ae084ab7f7e8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tobias Klauser Date: Mon, 24 Feb 2014 13:52:08 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] build: Set SHELL make variable to bash if possible On Debian/Ubuntu systems, /bin/sh is /bin/dash which doesn't understand the -e option to the `echo' builtin. Thus the build output looks something like the following: Building netsniff-ng toolkit (0.5.8-rc5+) for x86_64-linux-gnu: Building netsniff-ng: -e CC dissector.c -e CC dissector_eth.c -e CC dissector_80211.c ... Prevent this by setting SHELL to /bin/bash if it exists on the system, otherwise stick to /bin/sh.
