Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.2
Severity: normal
hi,
lintian reports a possible bashism in the maintainer scripts where i use
sed to fetch the python version:
from pythonPV-mysqldb.postinst:
PV=`echo $PACKAGE | sed -n -e '/^python.*-/{s,python\([0-9][0-9.]*\)-.*,\1,p}'`
lintian reports:
W: python2.3-mysqldb: possible-bashism-in-maintainer-script postinst:8
'/{s,python\([0-9][0-9.]*\)-.*,\1,p}' N:
N: This script is marked as running under /bin/sh, but it seems to use a
N: feature found in bash.
[...]
in my eyes there's no need for bash as the script is sed, and can be run
by any shell we provide in /etc/shells.
bye
jonas
