-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 According to Jim Meyering on 4/16/2008 2:33 AM: | This test would fail not only because the built-in mknod | doesn't support -Z, but because it doesn't know about 'p' pipes. | | tests: avoid mkdir/selinux failure when mknod is a shell built-in | * tests/mkdir/selinux: Skip the mknod test if it's a built-in.
Couldn't you try to defeat the shell builtin by using a subshell and exec to force the PATH lookup? For example, on bash: $ printf --version | head -n1 bash: printf: --: invalid option printf: usage: printf [-v var] format [arguments] $ (exec printf --version) | head -n1 printf (GNU coreutils) 6.10 Doesn't this also mean that you need to patch mknod.c to print USAGE_BUILTIN_WARNING? - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
