Hi!
On MacOS/X Yosemite, the test t805 in RCS 5.9.3 fails. The reason lies first in the call to 'head', then on the call to 'yes'.
Here is the diff output showing what's required to have it pass:
58c58
< yes | head -${n}c > $w
---
> yes | tr -d '\n' | head -c ${n} > $w
As you can see, 'head' and 'yes' have to be called differently on Yosemite.
My version of MacOS/X is:
- Darwin Kernel Version 14.0.0: Fri Sep 19 00:26:44 PDT 2014; root:xnu-2782.1.97~2/RELEASE_X86_64
- System Version: OS X 10.10 (14A389)
Hope this helps,
