Both of these are a really bad idea. If anything goes wrong at the wrong moment, /bin/sh would be left nonexistent and the system would be totally hosed. The _only_ safe way to manage /bin/sh is by rename(2)'ing something over the top of it, like dpkg does. Neither update-alternatives nor diversions should be applied to the essential files in Essential packages. Ian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
