sh-utils 1.15

Applicable to
S.u.S.E. version: 4.4
Kernel version: until 2.0.28
sh-utils version: 1.12 / 1.15

Symptom:

If sh-utils 1.15 is installed (by this the S.u.S.E. package sh_utils's programmes are replaced), then expr is more conformed to POSIX.

This gives problems when numbers are entered in /usr/src/linux/scripts/Configure.

Solution:

The kernel sources' following patch with the new version:
--- scripts/Configure   1997/01/15 16:41:24     1.1
+++ scripts/Configure   1997/01/15 16:42:02
