You received this bug notification bec
t3rmin4t0r proposed what should be the default: Make /bin/sh configurable by
update-alternatives without manual intervention.

I really feel it is unfair to users not to give them an informed choice.
For sure, it
OK, yet another thing that breaks horribly with dash being the default-shell:
XEN precompiled packages.
It took me ages to find out that dash was the reason things broke that bad.
IMO it is a really bad idea to switch the default shell to dash by default. I
have no problem with the possibility to
For what it's worth, I'm surprised /bin/sh isn't handled by update-
