Package: gtkdialog
Version: 2:0.7.20-4
Severity: important

When dash is the shell, one gets, with gtkdialog -e:
./90.00-event_driven
sh: source: not found

According to
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1144067#4
the non-portable `source' builtin is used instead of `.'. . is in
POSIX, and autoconf manual on portable shell scripts says:

`source'
     This command is not portable, as Posix does not require it; use
     `.' instead.

It looks like the line
        the_line = g_strdup_printf("source %s; %s",

should be replaced by
        the_line = g_strdup_printf(". %s; %s",

You filled the bug http://bugs.debian.org/542855 in Debian BTS
against the package gtkdialog. I'm closing it at *unstable*, but it will
remain open for older distributions.

For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/543945. That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed and suggestions of possible replacements.

Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.

Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
