[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #62135] `make dist` fails with bash error

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #62135 (project octave):

Oops, wrong file.
The command it is complaining about is probably this one here:

        @srcdirstrip=`echo "$(srcdir)" | sed 's/[].[^$$\\*]/\\\\&/g'`; \
        topsrcdirstrip=`echo "$(top_srcdir)" | sed 's/[].[^$$\\*]/\\\\&/g'`; \
        list='$(DISTFILES)'; \
          dist_files=`for file in $$list; do echo $$file; done | \
          sed -e "s|^$$srcdirstrip/||;t" \
              -e "s|^$$topsrcdirstrip/|$(top_builddir)/|;t"`; \
        case $$dist_files in \
          */*) $(MKDIR_P) `echo "$$dist_files" | \
                           sed '/\//!d;s|^|$(distdir)/|;s,/[^/]*$$,,' | \
                           sort -u` ;; \
        esac; \
        for file in $$dist_files; do \
          if test -f $$file || test -d $$file; then d=.; else d=$(srcdir); fi; \
          if test -d $$d/$$file; then \
            dir=`echo "/$$file" | sed -e 's,/[^/]*$$,,'`; \
            if test -d "$(distdir)/$$file"; then \
              find "$(distdir)/$$file" -type d ! -perm -700 -exec chmod u+rwx 
{} \;;
\
            fi; \
            if test -d $(srcdir)/$$file && test $$d != $(srcdir); then \
              cp -fpR $(srcdir)/$$file "$(distdir)$$dir" || exit 1; \
              find "$(distdir)/$$file" -type d ! -perm -700 -exec chmod u+rwx 
{} \;;
\
            fi; \
            cp -fpR $$d/$$file "$(distdir)$$dir" || exit 1; \
          else \
            test -f "$(distdir)/$$file" \
            || cp -p $$d/$$file "$(distdir)/$$file" \
            || exit 1; \
          fi; \
        done


That is pretty long and contains $dist_files twice. Probably that variable
grew too long...
