Bug#690717: libreoffice-common: bashism in /bin/sh script



Package: libreoffice-common
Version: 3.5.4+dfsg-2
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 ./usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice line 160 (should be 
>word 2>&1):
>    exec &>valgrind.log

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:

Thank you,
