Why? It seems to work perfectly fine here.
__> basename /usr/local/src/arch/packages--debian/kernel-package/kernel-package/debian/common/checklibs
checklibs

You do not seem to understand what trap does. I unlink temp
files the moment I am done with them. Traps are set to handle
exceptions, and to clean up when those occur.
Please read up on signal handling; your remark seems to indicate
you don't know what it is all about.

Right. It is standard boilerplate for my scripts; I usually use
it in diagnostic messages; of which none seemed to have survived into
production.

awk and Perl are essential packages; python would mean a
dependency. I also don''t like python, so I am unlikely to add python
code to my build system.

I don't understand that comment.
