Source: nvi Version: 1.81.6-13 Severity: normal Tags: patch User: m...@linux.it Usertags: usrmerge
Dear Maintainer, According to reproducible build tests nvi gets built differently on a merged-usr system vs a non-merged system. The package embeds the full path of sh. Since PATH defaults to /usr/bin before /bin, the first will be used on a usrmerged system where they're both essentially the same thing, but /usr/bin/sh does not exist on non-merged systems. The attached patch passes `vi_cv_path_shell=/bin/sh` to explicitly set the path. Regards, Ansgar
