Package: emdebian-rootfs

Severity: minor

In the packages.conf example file, it says that "wildcards supported by 'cp'
are allowed".  But cp doesn't support wildcards, bash does.

The supplied patch is incomplete, inaccurate and misleading.

packages.conf is loaded by embootstrap which is a /bin/bash script, so
therefore the original text is correct - any wildcards supported by
'cp' as implemented by /bin/bash will be supported by embootstrap, no
matter what your shell selection.
