Well.. everything IS NOW OK BUT I really had a problem upgrading this morning
with dselect... The delta was from friday last week... This occured on two
machines (one using ftp methods the other apt).

If people are logged AND have installed another shell they may survive.
I think it is safer to tell people to upgrade bash by hand and verify
what may be wrong with preinstall or postinstall script... The fact
that the package was still in
/var/lib/dpkg/methods/ftp/debian/dists/unstable/main/binary-powerpc/base
shows that dselect fetched the package and tried to install it but failed.
Here is the log of dselect messsages...
