The problem is known and on my list of things to clean up. The general plan is to change all shebangs to #!/usr/bin/env bash since Sage requires bash anyway and a some of the configure scripts in Sage's components do not play nicely with the Solaris 9 sh for example. > The following works ok - I replaced == by = whenever == was seen I put fixing readline on the list of things to do. <SNIP> The plan on my end right now is to fix the OSX 10.5 64 bit and FreeBSD ports in 3.0.1 and 3.0.2 and then tackle the Solaris port in earnest again once coercion is merged. Sorry for never getting back to you on your last email about the use of your Solaris boxen, post 3.0.2 you will definitely hear from me again.
