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 ./lib/live/boot/9990-misc-helpers.sh line 664 (read 
with option other than -r):
>                                        read -s passphrase
>possible bashism in ./lib/live/boot/9990-mount-iscsi.sh line 36 (echo -e):
>                        echo -ne $i\\r

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,

..apart from the fact that we do check for bashisms within the test
target in the makefile..

this is executed within initramfs, closing.
