Fixed
Created: Jan 28, 2016

Resolved Date: Feb 2, 2016
Found In Version: 7.0.0.11
Fix Version: 7.0.0.13
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux 7
Component/s: Build & Config
Host OS: Linux Ubuntu
Architecture: IA32
On Ubuntu hosts the default /bin/sh is /bin/dash, and it is allowed with WR Linux 7, because the Yocto Project supports it.
Customer is working on changing over to a Managed OS (Ubuntu 14.04 image supplied by their IT department). This is
done to meet the IT department’s requirements. They found a failure in WRL-7 in this new Managed host OS
(Ubuntu 14.04) where the default setting of Ubuntu 14.04 for /bin/sh is symlinked to dash. The build worked with their current host
OS which has /bin/sh symlinked to bash.
See ShSetToDash_Failure.zip for the failing build output (build_log.txt) and they used the out of the box
Wind River build to show the issue. See do_build.sh.

This is not really a work around, but it will make things continue on until the
problem is fixed.
sudo ln -sf /bin/bash /bin/sh
Make sure /bin/sh points to /bin/dash e.g.
% ls -l /bin/sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 9 2012-07-06 13:25 /bin/sh -> /bin/dash
# ln -s {path-to-WRL7} /opt/WindRiver7
#./do_build.sh
