But isn't that also an argument for having /bin/sh always point to bash? Like it or not, bash is the "de-facto standard" (yuck) shell today under Linux. People expect it to be that way.
"We always did it that way" is just not a very good argument for anything.
That wasn't my argument. The argument was that changing it would break people's assumptions. But never mind.
Back to my point - openSUSE needs to have a reliable standard what kind of shell syntax is acceptable in scriptlets which don't use "- p".
The aim surely is sh, simply because most specfiles are simple, already compliant or annotated -- judging from all the files that have passed me by within the last two-plus years.
Define "sh", please. We've seem at least 4 candidates in this thread so far except bash itself (dash, ash, (p)bosh, ksh93).
