A bunch of core commands such as bash, sed, make etc. are implicitly included in the build environment by the GNU build systems (which most other build systems simply extend). So if there's a bash shebang somewhere, the patch-source-shebang phase may substitute it to the *native* implicit bash command found in the environment, thus keeping a reference to it. That's a bug, as it means bash-minimal should be explicitly added to the inputs, otherwise when cross-building the package for another architecture the native bash captured wouldn't be executable on the target. -- Thanks, Maxim
