Hi,
in build-aux/install-sh scriptversion=2016-01-11.22 line 327
tmpdir=${TMPDIR-/tmp}/ins$RANDOM-$$
... things which are spuriously bad if $RANDOM does not exist ...
Please use something like:
tmpdir=$(mktemp -d -p ${TMPDIR:-/tmp})
Note also :
NetBSD /bin/sh does not have $RANDOM.
I don't know how portable mktemp is. sorry.
Thanks.
