Subject: python: don't assume $(...) in py-compile.
X-Git-Tag: v1.16.4~32
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6a753ef54ae4688f60a1a22415e028e4b51ca372;p=thirdparty%2Fautomake.git

python: don't assume $(...) in py-compile.

This change (very) partially fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/45205.

* lib/py-compile: use `...` instead of $(...).
Solaris 10 /bin/sh is still in use.
