Hello maintainer, While performing an archive wide checkbashisms (from the 'devscripts' package) check I've found your package containing a /bin/sh script making use of a bashism. checkbashisms' output: > possible bashism in ./usr/bin/varkon line 23 (echo -e): > echo -e "\t$1" > possible bashism in ./usr/bin/varkon line 183 (echo -e): > echo -e "Configuration:\tcurrent (old)" > possible bashism in ./usr/bin/varkon line 184 (echo -e): > echo -e "`if [ "$NEW_HTML_VIEWER" != "$HTML_VIEWER" ]; then echo -n > '*'; else echo -n " "; fi`1 html_viewer:\t$NEW_HTML_VIEWER ($HTML_VIEWER)" > possible bashism in ./usr/bin/varkon line 185 (echo -e): > echo -e "`if [ "$NEW_MBS_EDITOR" != "$MBS_EDITOR" ]; then echo -n '*'; > else echo -n " "; fi`2 mbseditor:\t$NEW_MBS_EDITOR ($MBS_EDITOR)" possible > bashism in ./usr/bin/varkon line 186 (echo -e): > echo -e "`if [ "$NEW_MBS_EMULATOR" != "$MBS_EMULATOR" ]; then echo -n > '*'; else echo -n " "; fi`3 mbsemulator:\t$NEW_MBS_EMULATOR > ($MBS_EMULATOR)" possible bashism in ./usr/bin/varkon line 339 (should be > '.', not 'source'): source $SYSINI > possible bashism in ./usr/bin/varkon line 398 (should be '.', not > 'source'): source $USERINI Not using bash as /bin/sh would lead to errors or unexpected behaviours. Please be aware that although bash is currently the default /bin/sh there's a release goal for Lenny to make dash the default /bin/sh[1]. If you want more information about dash as /bin/sh, you can read: http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2008/01/msg00189.html https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh [1]http://release.debian.org/lenny/goals.txt Thank you, -- Atomo64 - Raphael Please avoid sending me Word, PowerPoint or Excel attachments.
