[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /bin/sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2007-06-28 17:36 /bin/sh -> dash
According to wikipedia:
Dash is a modern replacement for ash in Debian and is expected to be
the default /bin/sh for Debian Lenny.[1] Since the 6.10 release in
October 2006, dash is also the default /bin/sh in Ubuntu[2]. However,
the transition in Ubuntu to making dash /bin/sh broke numerous shell
scripts that relied upon bash-specific functionality.[3] [4] ....
I have pulled source for the previous version of sage and built it
without problems.
Thanks,
Bert
