Zsh has almost perfect emulation of ksh. See this thread in zsh-users
-mailing-list:
http://www.zsh.org/mla/users/2005/msg00344.html
http://www.zsh.org/mla/users/2005/index.html
Its ksh-emulation can be invoked like this:
emulate ksh
The other way is to start zsh via symlink called ksh.
The real AT&T KSH93 is already packaged for Debian, because now they
use really free license. Its package is called "ksh" and its binary is
called "/bin/ksh93" . Packager of pdksh realised that and made
pdksh-package to use update-alternatives :
-=3D*[ROOT ZSH]*=3D- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/root # update-alternatives --config ksh=
=20
There is only 1 program which provides ksh
(/bin/pdksh). Nothing to configure.
Hence, I propose also zsh will use update-alternatives for managing
that ksh-symlink. I also propose that a package called ksh will do so,
too.

Yup, Oliver already suggested this months ago.. we were just waiting for
the pdksh maintainer to comply. zsh has started installing a ksh
alternative as of 4.2.5-2, uploaded yesterday, so I'm closing this bug.
