You probably mean "less than 3.1dfsg-9", but in any case this does not help because almost surely bash will already be at version 3.2-4 (the version in Lenny) or higher anyway when people upgrade. After all, upgrades overleaping one stable release are generally unsupported. Sven -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
