Dear Mike Frysinger,
In message 200911010838.08938.vapier@gentoo.org you wrote:
+if [ ! -z "$ARCH" -a "$ARCH" != "$2" ]; then
is the !-z really needed ?
We don't want the check to trigger if ARCH is not defined. [ "$ARCH" != "$2" ] will trigger as "" != "arm"
the implied question is whether this is a valid state. i know you dont wan> t that kind of comparison, but i thought the Makefile would have set it up fo> r you by default. now that i think about it a bit more, that isnt what happe> ns at all.
so only thing to change here is to use -n and not !-z
Or even omit the (redundant) "-n" and just write
if [ "$ARCH" -a "$ARCH" != "$2" ]; then ...
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
