Correct, that is noise in lenny->squeeze->wheezy piuparts tests. piuparts notices that the /bin/sh symlink is modified (so far in 4 packages out of 12000 tested up to now, 22000 to go). > Some details below for the morbidly curious[*].

I'll wait for that to reach wheezy. Possibly I'll ensure that dash gets installed in lenny to ensure identical upgrade paths. Or if it hits only a few packages, I'll just add more affects/found in foreign packages. Andreas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
