SunOS saros 5.9 Generic_112233-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-30
>Description:
Revision 1.1688 of pkgsrc/mk/bsd.pkg.mk causes "id" to be called with
the "-n" flag whenever bmake is run within the pkgsrc system. On Solaris
this causes lots of warnings of the form:
id: illegal option -- n
Usage: id [-ap] [user]
bmake: "../../mk/../../mk/bsd.pkg.mk" line 4861: warning: "id -nu" returned
non-zero status
to be printed.
/usr/bin/id on Solaris does not have a -n flag. There is a POSIX
conforming id command in Solaris, hidden away in /usr/xpg4/bin/id,
but few Solaris admins will have that pathed in in preference to
the historical default version.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
For the moment, I've manually reverted to r1.1687.
