I don't want to initiate a flame war on what shell to use best for task XY and minimizing system requirements is good and all... That said, I'd like to point out that to me, 'posix subset' for 'bootstrap tools' doesn't make much sense here. I can see your point where you would want to use only POSIX stuff for scripts running within the initrd context, so let's say live-boot is out of luck of getting "prettified". The bootstrapping environment on the other hand would be a full-blown Debian installation. And even if only a "base system + live-*" was installed...dash would be available. It just makes absolutely no sense to self-impose such artificial limitations. What's the problem with using dash's features when it's available anyways? Or even with defining bash as dependency for live-*? I mean we're talking KB here and not some dozen perl or python packages... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJQ2vGQAAoJEIWTgWPaKFdzUGcP/i4brw9l88I1AfDj12AxE5cT VHalhPtjPAdN4EkTNVt4JjCigtW+MA3jNzbxbyV3xz4P8NZKM1xGFBHEFAhgKp9M yecUwkilAPR8BJGO6xzp/jIAjLMubsjGmk3LlxVv4AkWDDMK1tzSBQjtbQnn/yaW 9Elro+bYcik9CV2AcQtlOr//kayWE9OJJNqt6QRRwyEvsgjCpi8cV+vxx/wWBhUq JH6dt8IrwxsHYAHDP8Fo3xdHEo2CDRKoliumLXUykKnUXmeIBY0qGUamBb9wLLRr B10p6L0VBrjnSjnMgOsm1hHUaZCzmYvfs8XPSRzC8dRnyp8foHH4THzzLefFYE7x W5SQ2xNCE/Nd3WUREWYb1nteO59afzDeUPeFt6GA4rwnP1GZmEJxy/YktXQZFtRN srcmx8wH82+o5dA0W19CB26JHUvFE3/Ro5EraafNdJf2vlwwQz49ktKBBHc7EwDK kVH3gt/nNAOoTAOPx3yNwuqWTz0YG4v6z6BRDfjdfhQYPzuleY1IO2fsl+LER0IZ JE8SAFBABFOC8AKolbUJ3+C4XWDxaJZgsWuCZdODoE4L8OX5lxApvHca8XhzOS9c hpGvZw0iKGSSyJj+UodIRDOSggIxQtNtDK5k5+ExSsdrMS6kknVL8Cx+SGSGkDyl 5WiZSo4Z4X2FbrLkMHl1 =FM8P -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
