#34221: sw_vers hangs during a build
--------------------------------+--------------------------
Reporter: richard.t.lloyd@… | Owner: jeremyhu@…

Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.0.4
Resolution: | Keywords: mountainlion
Port: gettext |

Comment (by kevin@…):
as far as I can tell this seems to be related to the execution of shell
commands without quotes EG:
/bin/sh -c "echo $(sw_vers -productVersion)" | sed -E 's/(10.[0-9]).*/\1/'
produces an output of 10.8
and
/bin/sh -c echo $(sw_vers -productVersion) | sed -E 's/(10.[0-9]).*/\1/'
results in no output. this is because the sh command seems to be not
behaving according to it's description - normally the args following the
-c are supposed to be passed to the called program but that's not what is
happening here. the -c requires its command to be quoted.
