./configure: 123: Syntax error: Bad fd number"

While compiling fftv I got a strange error.

./configure: 123: Syntax error: Bad fd number"

The fix for this is:

sudo mv /bin/sh /bin/sh.bkp
sudo ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh

  4. Won't the following be easier in many cases ?

    Change first line of configure script from

    #! /bin/sh

    to

    #! /bin/bash

    or to wherever bash is.

  5. In that way you have to change in every script.
