Not really wanting to get into this debate, but having had my tutorial linked here and associated with an opinion, I must clarify that my ideal for UNIX and Linux systems is that /bin/sh be in some way consistent, and provide all Bourne functionality. That is, my personal view is that stating "#!/bin/sh" says that SVR4 sh is expected; scripts that assume bash should state "#!/bin/bash" (or possibly "#!/usr/bin/bash", which is a different issue).
That is academic; the point of this post is to refute the statement that "http://steve-parker.org/sh/sh.shtml ... mostly cover[s] outdated incompatabilites between other shells." -- dash as #!/bin/sh introduces countless incompatibilities https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/141481 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
