Lintian tag: possible-bashism-in-maintainer-script
Type: warning
Description (from lintian-explain-tags)
This script is marked as running under /bin/sh, but it seems to use a
feature found in bash but not in the SUSv3 or POSIX shell specification.
Some examples are:
- == in a test, it should use = instead - read without a variable in the
argument - function to define a function - source instead of . - . command
args, passing arguments to commands via source is not supported -
{foo,bar} instead of foo bar - [[ test ]] instead of [ test ] (requires a
Korn shell) - type instead of which or command -v
Please refer to Scripts (Section 10.4) in the Debian Policy Manual for
details.
