You can force sux to use bash. Just replace the first line in /usr/bin/sux with "#!/bin/bash" You'd have to do the same for all scripts that depend on bash functionality. Speaking of which, you probably should see the shell used in the scripts from the sys-apps/baselayout package. All shell scripts use /bin/bash and not /bin/sh. So linking (d)ash as the default shell doesn't nearly have the impact you'd like it to have. -- [email protected] mailing list
