The "which" utility is not guaranteed to be installed either, and if it is, its behavior is not portable either. Conversely, the "command -v" shell builtin is required to exist in all POSIX 2008 compliant shells, and is thus guaranteed to work everywhere. Examples of open-source shells likely to be installed as /bin/sh on Linux, which implement the 11-year-old standard: ash, bash, busybox, dash, ksh, mksh and zsh. A side benefit of using the POSIX portable option is that it requires neither an external disk executable, nor (because unlike "which", the exit code is reliable) a subshell fork. This therefore represents a mild speedup. Signed-off-by: Eli Schwartz <eschwartz@archlinux.org> Reviewed-by: Daniel Kiper <daniel.kiper@oracle.com>
