Agreed. There's no point in forcing the user to use bash for /bin/sh, in my opinion, unless we really need it for something.

That was this post, right (the one that started this thread)? http://linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/lfs-dev/2007-February/058936.html Are those still the current patches? I remember some discussion of testing whether echo or /bin/echo supports -e, and the first of those patches just "punts" to printf instead. If you have an updated patch, I'll certainly look through it again. (I'd say just commit your changes to the repo, but I suspect it'd be better to get some opinions on any updated version of them that may exist.) > I also want to try posh, like Alexander suggested.
