Bug#690626: ax25-tools: bashism in /bin/sh script
Package: ax25-tools
Version: 0.0.10-rc2+cvs20120204-3
Severity: important
User: debian-release@lists.debian.org

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/rsusers line 9 (echo -e):
>echo -en "Linux/ROSE 001. AX.25, NET/ROM and ROSE Users.\r"
>possible bashism in ./usr/sbin/rsusers line 46 (echo -e):
> echo -en "\r"
>possible bashism in ./usr/sbin/rsusers line 84 (echo -e):
> echo -en "\r"
>possible bashism in ./usr/sbin/rsusers line 122 (echo -e):
> echo -en "\r"
>possible bashism in ./usr/sbin/rsusers line 125 (read without variable):
>read
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.
