[SOLVED] is this a typo?

case $(uname -m) in
x86_64)
sed -e '/m64=/s/lib64/lib/' \
-i.orig gcc/config/i386/t-linux64
;;
esac

shouldn't it be ...(x86_64)?

i think so but just want to make sure so i don't break or any change anything thats going to cause issues.

i tried both (x86_64) and x86_64 neither work. both times i get a complaint about the command with () it says invalid token at ( the second time it complains about the two ;;.

The original is correct.

Closing paren only on the second line, that's the case syntax.

Code:

case $(uname -m) in
    x86_64)
        sed -e '/m64=/s/lib64/lib/' \
        -i.orig gcc/config/i386/t-linux64
        ;;
esac
