Package: linux-kbuild-3.2

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/linux-kbuild-3.2/scripts/setlocalversion line 
90 (should be 'b = a'):

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,
Raphael Geissert

This seems to have been resolved at some point, but I have not tried
to track this down to the exact version. Please reopen as well the bug
if you disagree.
