sigh. Yes, I know about the patches. And I know why they didn't do the switch, especially considering that it's normally too large a change to consider without a major release as opposed to a patch... but IMO bash as /bin/sh is so boneheaded as to be worth an exception. (Yes, I feel this way about Linux as well. I was fully supportive when Debian switched its /bin/sh to dash.) -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates [email protected] [email protected] unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
