Package: dash Version: 0.5.8-2.4 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I tracked a build bug in s-nail to a problem with dash. Symptom: building s-nail tries to run /home/nr/bin/clang, a script whose executable bit is not set. We tracked the problem to the result of running `command -v clang` with /bin/sh: nr@homedog ~/n/s-nail> /bin/sh -c 'command -v clang' /home/nr/bin/clang nr@homedog ~/n/s-nail> ls -l /home/nr/bin/clang -rw-rw-r-- 1 nr nr 1009 Aug 29 2011 /home/nr/bin/clang nr@homedog ~/n/s-nail> ls -l /bin/sh lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jan 24 2017 /bin/sh -> dash nr@homedog ~/n/s-nail> ksh -c 'command -v clang' /usr/bin/clang nr@homedog ~/n/s-nail> bash -c 'command -v clang' /usr/bin/clang nr@homedog ~/n/s-nail> sh -c 'command -v clang' /home/nr/bin/clang nr@homedog ~/n/s-nail> dash -c 'command -v clang' /home/nr/bin/clang nr@homedog ~/n/s-nail> fish -c 'command -v clang' /usr/bin/clang When I run `command -v clang` I expect it to answer /usr/bin/clang. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: amd64 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.utf8), LANGUAGE=C (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.utf8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages dash depends on: ii debianutils 4.8.1.1 ii dpkg 1.18.24 ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u1 dash recommends no packages. dash suggests no packages. -- debconf information: * dash/sh: true
