Package: kernel-patch-debian-2.6.9
Version: 2.6.9-5
Severity: normal

        The file apply/debian (/usr/src/kernel-patches/all/2.6.9/apply/debian
        in my system) has a bashism in line 160:

        for base in $((cd $home/series/ && ls -d *) | sort -rnt- -k 2); do

        I have dash as /bin/sh. So, when I try to apply the patch with
        "make-kpkg --added-patches debian", it goes like this:

/usr/src/kernel-patches/all/2.6.9/apply/debian: 160: Syntax error: Missing '))'

        I think the solution would be to change the "$(...)" stuff for a
        backquote block (i.e., "`...`") or to specify /bin/bash as the shell
        to use with this script. I've opted for the latter, but the former
        looks prettier :-)
