Update osh to 20090527, per maintainer update request by PR#41509. Upstream changes between osh-20081213 and osh-20090527 follow: osh bug fixes: 1) This release fixes an `echo' bug that causes `echo ""' to print an unnecessary diagnostic. 2) It also fixes a `sigign' bug that can cause incorrect signal ignoring behavior for subshells. New osh features: 1) This release adds `cd' as a synonym for the `chdir' special command. 2) It also adds $m as a special parameter for the value of the MANPATH environment variable.
Update shells/osh
Add new maintainer. Thank you J.A.
The following is from PR #40006:
I would like to maintain this package if that is acceptable.
Thus, I added myself as MAINTAINER.
Changed files: DESCR, Makefile, PLIST, distinfo
Changes between osh-20080629 and osh-20081122 which affect the osh
package on the various pkgsrc platforms are described below.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[osh-20081122]:
mkconfig:
* Added a case for DragonFly BSD (uname -s == DragonFly).
osh.c:
* Fixed a bug introduced in osh-20061230 where the shell
incorrectly handles an unescaped terminating backslash (\)
character at the end of string when the shell is invoked as
`osh -c string'. In this case, the terminating backslash
causes the shell to incorrectly read from the standard input
at the end of string.
For example:
% osh -c 'echo Hello\'
to\
you!
Hello to you!
This example should instead do nothing and exit w/ a zero
status. For `osh -c string', an unescaped terminating
backslash should effectively turn string into a no-op.
Now, it behaves as expected.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[osh-20081026]:
Makefile:
* Changed the "oshall" target to only build osh since the fd2,
goto, and if utilities are now built into the shell.
* Changed the "install-oshall" target to only install osh and
its manual pages. This includes the fd2.1, goto.1, and if.1
manual pages since they are not fully documented elsewhere.
osh.c:
* Renamed cmd_index() to cmd_lookup(), and changed the algorithm
from a linear search to a binary search.
* Added a base reallocation multiplier to glob() to reduce the
number of realloc()s required for very large argument vectors
while allowing the first malloc() to be a relatively small
allocation for up to 126 matching file-name arguments.
util.c:
* This is a new file for the integrated shell utilities.
* Added a new `-e' command-line option to fd2 to simplify
redirecting all conventional output to the standard error
as diagnostic output.
* Integrated the external `fd2', `goto', and `if' shell
utilities as special built-in commands to improve shell
performance. Also, added `echo' as a special built-in
command. Osh executes each of these built-ins in a subshell.
Consequently, the I/O for each can be redirected as before,
and the argument list for each can be the result of a call to
glob() as before.
Upgrade shells/osh to 040216, this closes PR pkg/24501. Too many changes to copy here, previous package was 2 years old, please review the Changelog file.
Initial import of osh-020214 into the NetBSD packages collection as shells/osh. Osh is a re-implementation of the old and obsolete shell version, which was in standard use up to UNIX 6th Edition and was supplied as osh with UNIX 7th Edition. Its command language is a sparse subset of those of modern shells and is mostly common both to sh(1) and csh(1). This pkgsrc entry is based on the FreeBSD ports entry for osh.
