- This sounds like a variation of the problems that I had. Recompiling with
- jump 4.1 fixed it for me.
-
- On archsci.arch.su.edu.au (129.78.66.1) in directory pub/linux/gnu are
-
- bash -- jump 4.1 version of bash binary (may need stripping?)
- bash.diff -- diffs for bash-1.12.tar.Z (available from your local gnu site)
- to compile under linux.
-
- for those who need them
