Package: cowdancer
Version: 0.56+a1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hello,
The cowdancer test suite uses "set -o pipefail", which is not
available in dash, making it fail when /bin/sh is dash. I haven't
found an equivalent of this option in dash, but a very easy way to fix
this is to make the Makefile explicitly use bash, as the attached
patch suggests.
Cheers,

Stephane
