Description of problem: Quilt fails to build on FC-5 because it's configure script detects the following bug in the bash: checking whether /bin/bash quoting works... no configure: error: You have a version of `bash' which suffers from a quoting bug. This is a known bug of bash 3.1, which was fixed by patch bash31-011. You can get this patch at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/ Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): bash-3.1-6.2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Attempt to build quilt 2. 3. Actual results: Build fails Expected results: Build doesn't hit this bash configure problem Additional info: The patch to fix this is included in the configure output.
Note that quilt builds just fine on rawhide (soon to be FC-6) so that version must have the patch to fix the issue.
I'm going to push a bash-3.1-9.fc5.1 package to updates-testing. Please try it out when it appears.
