Summary

0013335: Build installs into wrong directory due to bug in bootstrap script

Description

CMake build on Solaris with a given prefix fails since the substitution expression is incompatible with Solaris /bin/sh:

bootstrap:547
--prefix=*) cmake_prefix_dir=`cmake_fix_slashes "${1#*=}"` ;;

Result on Solaris 10 (x86 and SPARC) is "bad substitution", resulting in empty cmake_prefix_dir, thus trying to install into the root directory.

Workaround is to change the shell to /bin/bash.

Steps To Reproduce

- Run configure with some value for --prefix (or --datadir etc) on Solaris.

- Run following test script with at least one parameter on Solaris:
#!/bin/sh
echo "${1#*=}"
