Subject: ndiswrapper-common: ndiswrapper script fails (debian bug 381544)
Date: Fri, 08 Sep 2006 20:01:25 +0200
X-Mailer: reportbug 3.21.2ubuntu1

Package: ndiswrapper-common
Version: 1.18-1ubuntu1
Severity: important


According to debian bug 381544, the ndiswrapper script in 
ndiswrapper-common fails when /bin/sh points to dash.

As dash is required by ubuntu-desktop, this is a bit of a problem.

The solution is to run ndiswrapper with bash:

sudo bash -x /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper

(as pointed out by Marco Nenciarini)

The issue is resolved in debian package ndiswrapper 1.22-1 as of august 
7th, and it would be really great to get it into the ubuntu packages.
