In case bash is excluded (with PACKAGE_EXCLUDE, INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE,
BAD_RECOMMENDATIONS...) I would expect this change to throw an error
still, the latest during package QA, when it scans the scripts for
missing dependencies - because the dependency itself is still present.
Does it not fail those checks?
That is correct. The check fails, I ignore how I missed that.
As an alternative, I wonder if it would make sense to install this
dns-updown script to a separate package, and make that depend on
bash only.
A new package would be more appropriate.
On the other hand, is bash really necessary? Sometimes it's just
shaband that's wrong on script
and POSIx /bin/sh can even be used. Could you try this?
That was also my first thought. The scripts are not POSIX compliant
unfortunately. It's quite sad as all older scripts used to be.
I'll send a v2 with a package openvpn-dns-updown. Do you think I should
add a rdepends between openvpn and this ? My first guess would be to not
take the dependency as the dns-updown scripts are recent.
