Using compare.sh ?

[Erik Joelsson]

I will try to improve the help output from script and detecting of bad 
input.

The way it's currently implemented, it compares a "build" and not just 
an image. -o is supposed to point to the root of a build output. The 
usecase of comparing just the j2sdk image was dropped. I wanted to check 
both the jre and sdk images, and am now also adding comparison of docs.

The intended way of calling the script for what I think you are trying 
to do would be:

/java/embedded/users/dh198349/profiles/builds/b65/se-linux-i586-ea> bash 
compare.sh -all -vv -o 
/scratch/dh198349/profiles-ref/builds/b60/se-linux-i586-ea
