Bug#690720: live-boot: bashism in /bin/sh script
Package: live-boot
Version: 3.0~b6-1
Severity: important
User: debian-release@lists.debian.org
Usertags: goal-dash
Hello maintainer,
While performing an archive wide checkbashisms (from the 'devscripts'
package) check I've found your package containing a /bin/sh script making
use of a bashism.
checkbashisms' output:
>possible bashism in ./lib/live/boot/9990-misc-helpers.sh line 664 (read
with option other than -r):
> read -s passphrase
>possible bashism in ./lib/live/boot/9990-mount-iscsi.sh line 36 (echo -e):
> echo -ne $i\\r
Not using bash (or a Debian Policy conformant shell interpreter which
doesn't provide such an extra feature) as /bin/sh is likely to lead to
errors or unexpected behaviours.
You can find hints about how to fix bashisms at:
