Bug#581077: debian-edu-config: bashism in /bin/sh script
Package: debian-edu-config
Severity: normal
Version: 1.441
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/sbin/ltsp-make-client line 509 (echo -e):
> echo -e "error: Can't copy the new Iceweasel override settings to
> LTSP."\
Not using bash (or a Debian Policy compliant shell interpreter that doesn't
provide such an extra feature) as /bin/sh is likely to lead to errors or
unexpected behaviours. Please be aware that dash is now the default /bin/sh.
Hints about how to fix bashisms can be found at:

If you still don't know how to fix the bashisms don't hesitate to reply to
this email, or tag the bug as 'help'.
Thank you,
Raphael Geissert
