GNU uname should identify OS as illumos #195
Description

A long time ago I played with this and had the following:
diff --git a/sysutils/coreutils/Makefile b/sysutils/coreutils/Makefile index 82c440e..cdf8ce7 100644 --- a/sysutils/coreutils/Makefile +++ b/sysutils/coreutils/Makefile @@ -43,6 +43,11 @@ SUBST_FILES.libname= Makefile.in SUBST_SED.libname= -e '/^src_libstdbuf_so_LDFLAGS/s,$$, -install_name ${PREFIX}/libexec/coreutils/glibstdbuf.so,' .endif +.if ${OPSYS} == "SunOS" +CONFIGURE_ENV+= gl_cv_host_operating_system=illumos +.endif + + PROGS= [ base64 basename cat chcon chgrp chmod chown chroot cksum comm \ cp csplit cut date dd df dir dircolors dirname du hostid echo env \ expand expr factor false fmt fold groups head id install join kill \But that is lazy way to fix it as it would be wrong when using pkgsrc on Oracle Solaris.
Propably should just try to shell out to/usr/bin/uname -onow?Older Solaris releases don't support

As of bug 1956, the
unamebinary provided by the operating system will reportillumosforuname -oinstead of the traditionalSolaris. Unfortunately in a pkgsrc-based zone, at least under some conditions the GNUunameappears first inPATH. A naive script may rununame -oand see theSolarisvalue.We should patch the pkgsrc copy of
unameto reportillumosas the system version does.See example with current trunk packages:
