Package: debootstrap
Version: 0.2.41-0.2
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
it would be nice if "debootstrap --variant=buildd" would install a
stricter POSIX shell (e.g., dash or posh) and let /bin/sh link to it
(instead of to bash). This would help discover cases where scripts and makefiles (debian/rules is a favorite here!) use bash features but don't explicitly state "#!/bin/bash" or "SHELL=/bin/bash", respectively.
See also Policy, 10.4. Scripts.
(Of course, this doesn't mean bash must be removed at the same time,
the intention here is rather to improve quality and compliance to our own standards for package building.)
Thanks for considering.
bye,
Roland
