Policy requires the shell interpreter to support 'local foo', which is different from 'local foo=bar' and not required by policy, hence reopening the bug report (but lowering the severity and removing it from the dash as /bin/sh RG). > > You've been asked to be more careful in what you're reporting before. > It's not that I don't appreciate QA efforts, but filing spurious bugs > doesn't help anyone and wastes quite a bit of time when spread across > the distribution this way. I'm sorry to hear that, but I've been manually checking and filling every package on which checkbashisms has found something. I admit I forgot to lower the severity and not assign it to the RG, but the bug _does_ exist. > > -- > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > | ,''`.
