I have not been following this thread as I thought it was book/design issue as opposed to a jhalfs one. The current requirement is bash must exist on the system. If jhalfs will build all books without a hitch then I do not see the value in crashing jhalfs just because /bin/sh does not point to bash. FYI the original change request to accommodate Ubuntu/Dash was started by TheOldFellow on Nov.06 2006.
