[Pkg-fonts-devel] Bug#581475: ttf-sil-abyssinica: bashism in debian/rules
Source: ttf-sil-abyssinica
Version: 1.0-6
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's debian/rules making use of a
bashism.
checkbashisms' output:
> possible bashism in rules line 11 (should be >word 2>&1):
> debian/scripts/strip Abyssinica_SIL.ttf debian-installer-stripped-
> down/am_AM-debian-installer-stripped-down.ttf &> /dev/null
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
