Hi
I noticed that some shell scripts have bashisms in them, on Debian and
it's derivatives /bin/sh is dash. A quick list of scripts shipped by
389-ds-base having this issue:
monitor
ldif2db
ldif2ldap
db2bak
vlvindex
dn2rdn
restoreconfig
saveconfig
upgradedb
suffix2instance
dbverify
but since I just ran all the scripts without any options, there might be
others too that fail with unexpected operator errors etc when ran in a
real environment. So maybe change all of them to use /bin/bash or
migrate them to be posix compatible (and somehow test new ones for
compliance)?
I think they should be changed to be plain old posix bourne shell
compatible - lowest common denominator. There's no reason to use bash
specific features.

Oh right, I remember this ticket now :) Will attach a new patch there.
