Package: bash Source: bash (4.3-14) Version: 4.3-14+b1 This is a crummy bug report. I've been having some trouble with Bash in some QEMU/Chroot environments. I'm guessing the Bash maintainers don't know about the issues.
I use quite a few Debian Ports (https://www.debian.org/ports/) because Debian carries our package, and our package maintainer, László Böszörményi, manages to find issues despite our sincerest efforts. **************************************** First issue: in a Sparc64 QEMU/Chroot guest, the lightweight VM fails to start.
