Quick dependency question / Looking for a sponsor: everything/maim/libmail-sender-perl



Hello,
	I have a quick question for the experienced packager. For the hell of it,
in the Everything engine package, I wrote a maintainer script (my postinst)
using bash and some sed to do intelligent default guessing and general
parsing/escaping.  Now sed is in the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard
(http://www.pathname.com/fhs/), and bash is not. Do I have to explicitly
declare everything as being dependant on one or both of them, or do they get
installed by default?  What can you expect for that?

	I am also looking for a person to sponsor and upload my packages. They are
available signed with components and descriptions at
http://jay.bonci.com/debian. They are complete, tested and working (with
minor work items, listed at the bottom).  Let me know if those are enough to
stop them from being submitted, and if I'm missing anything.

	everything - perl/mysql/apache web driven database engine
	libmail-sender-perl pure perl SMTP module
	maim - color terminal AIM clone

	They were built with debhelper and the devscripts tools.

I posted about a month ago, but these packages are in considerably more
mature shape.

		Thanks a lot for any help you can offer
