Hi! Quoting Karl Ramm: > AFAIC, the *most* right fix is to do nothing (other than > to remove the dependency in bash).
I disagree. add-shell/remove-shell are very good candidates for Debian-specific maintenance stuff. BTW, dependency in bash _is still not removed_ (see bug #305232). > Also, for things that are already in /etc/shells, > (as I said in the micropolicy) P.S. I also think the /etc/shells file _could_ be split in two parts/files/dirs: debian-maintained and locally-maintained. On installation "passwd" could search for add-shell/remove-shell and/or debian-maintained "shells list" and e.g. append it to /etc/shells config file distributed inside "passwd" package (after a separator). Similarly, add-shell/remove-shell could check whether /etc/shells is installed and update it along with debian-maintained "shells list" accordingly. Of course, this is very approximate description. And I don't think this is _really_ necessary, mostly due to additional complexity. -- WBR, xrgtn -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
