Package: dash
Version: 0.5.5.1-7.4
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

After upgrading to squeeze and answering "yes" to install question of
using dash as default shell for non-interactive users, all my cronjobs
that use $RANDOM variable to delay some random seconds of running time
stopped working.

Please implement this in dash.

Example of a simple cronjob which runs with a random delay of
0 ~ 327 seconds (to prevent network peaks of all the machines):

  */30 * * * * sleep $(($RANDOM/100)) && do_something_network_related

Thanks,
Pedro
