GNU Make uses sh by default, and as far as I know source isn't available in there. Instead . can be used, they are alias anyway.
Or SHELL can be changed to bash
Oh, that's an interesting find! Is your sh symlinked to dash perchance? (ls -la /bin/sh)
The interesting part is that it does work on my system. My system has /bin/sh symlinked to /bin/bash and it seems that Bash's POSIX compatibility mode also includes the source builtin when it should not. Does that warrant a bug report to bash maintainers?
@furkansimsekli Can you check de34e55?
Yes it's now being built successfully!
Is your sh symlinked to dash perchance?
Yeah, /bin/bash is symlinked to dash.
...it seems that Bash's POSIX compatibility mode also includes the source builtin when it should not.
Maybe POSIX mode doesn't have to be exactly sh compatible, i don't know... I'm not sure if it's enough for a bug report, but why not?
