I was unaware of this issue until just now, when some scripts (Nautilus- Subversion) failed to work (I filed a bug, of course).
Figuring out that this was the issue, with no pre-knowledge of the bash/dash situation, wasted about an hour of my time. So on the one hand I have sympathy for people who wrote comments here requesting that bash be returned as the default. On the other hand, if indeed the LSB mandates that "sh" be POSIX- compliant, and not bash, then I feel I must support the Ubuntu decision to use dash. If Linux in general has any hope of fixing bug #1, then standards like the LSB are crucial. Short-term breakage is the cost of getting long-term stability - if we don't break things now, they will never be fixed, and the standard will be meaningless. Just my 2c. -- Script that are using bash could be broken with the new symlink https://launchpad.net/bugs/61463 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
