Package: systemd-container
Version: 235-3
Severity: normal

Until https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/1395 will be fixed, 
machinectl should be patched to use /bin/bash as the default shell 
instead of /bin/sh.
While some people may favour a different interactive shell it is quite 
obvious that nobody wants to use dash as their interactive shell, so 
this saves the need to type "exec bash" every time.

This is a single line change in bus_machine_method_open_shell() in 
src/machine/machine-dbus.c.

This was rejected upstream and the reason are imo solid enough that we
should not do that in Debian downstream either (as we can't know what
will be inside the chroot).

So closing this bug report.
Upstream is working on a more elaborate fix which is tracked at the
issue you already mentioned.

Regards,
Michael
