Package: pdfjam
Version: 1.20-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

I use bash as shell and have
  alias rm='rm -i'
in my ~/.bashrc file.

When I use pdfnup, the script asks me to confirm
the deletion of every single temporary file due to the use of rm and
the alias above; which is arguably not the expected behavior.

Changing the first line of /usr/bin/pdfnup from
  #! /bin/bash
to
  #!/bin/sh
fixes the problem (note that I am not expert enough to check whether
the script actually makes use of bashisms).
