In the past, there was at least one incompatibility (that could have been worked around with a shell function). I don't know how suitable zsh is as a Debian /bin/sh right now, and I'm not sure we want to support that (the only compelling benefit I could see is having zsh be the only shell on your system, which is currently impossible anyway). Brian, are you using zsh as /bin/sh already, with a manual symlink change? If so, have you run into any problems? If we do want to do this, it will reintroduce a dependency on debconf (which is not a very big deal). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
