You probably want it, because a decent number of people use a shell other than bash or dash as /bin/sh. For example, one might use mksh-static because it's statically linked. Also, someone might try to use zsh as /bin/sh, which doesn't work (it breaks debconf). It's much better to have this information up front than to have to guess about it, especially since many reporters won't think to mention it. -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | http://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b: 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
