Hi Is it worth considering using Dash as the default (non-interactive) shell in Fedora? Other distributions including Ubuntu and Debian ( https://lwn.net/Articles/343924/) have been using dash as the default shell and Android uses mksh. While this appears to have been done primary to increase bootup efficiency (which is not relevant with systemd), it might help with security
Since the recent Shellshock aka Bashdoor vulnerability, there have been some discussions about more distributions switching over ( http://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/614218/019d9a52b0eaae3d/) and I was wondering whether it is worth considering for Fedora? FWIW, both dash and mksh is already packaged in Fedora. Rahul
