Package: zsh,zsh-static
Version: 5.9-1
Tags: patch
Severity: serious
Justification: Debian policy 10.7.3
When upgrading or reinstalling zsh or zsh-static, it adds /bin/zsh or
/bin/zsh-static respectively to /etc/shells even if one locally removed
it there. Such behaviour violates Debian policy section 10.7.3. I
propose managing the entry declaratively using dpkg triggers and am
attaching a patch for your convenience.
