Bug#402577: xutils: Suggest depend on all possible ksh implementations



Package: xutils
Version: 1:7.1.ds.3-1
Severity: normal

Hi!

Since the xauth_switch_to_sun-des-1 script needs ksh, the package
Suggests that pdksh be installed. In reality, any ksh implementation
should do, and hence a wider 'ksh | mksh | pdksh | zsh' dependency
should do. This is infact done by an another package (flowscan)
which actually hard-depends on a ksh implementation.

Regards,
Ramkumar.
