Sparr, your comments are unhelpful---there IS a problem here, and it making the distribution notably less useful. Reverting /bin/sh to point to bash will fix this until you can (quite rightly) beat people into specifying /bin/bash if they need bash.
But, for now, this is breaking stuff, and it can be easily unbroken. The high road here is not helpful to Ubuntu users, and smacks of the same kind of perfectionist arrogance which curses open source software to forever be a continual battle with your computer to make it actually work properly. If you think this is minor, search for “dash” within the Ubuntu bug list. I've seen this break _configure scripts_, for crying out loud. You're not going to upstream fix autoconf _and_ get everyone who uses it to release new tarballs this side of 2007. -- Script that are using bash could be broken with the new symlink https://launchpad.net/bugs/61463 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
