Interesting.
echo $0 gives "bash"
ls -lah /bin/sh gives "dash"
The GUI User Settings application gives /bin/bash as the shell for my username.
So, I think I'm running bash. Why, then does bitbake complain that I'm running
dash??? Maybe bitbake logs in a new job and it gets the default shell from
/bin/sh?
Some of the packages OE builds do not build is /bin/sh is linked to
dash. So OE complains early so you don't run into mysterious build
failures due script in a packages build process dying due to dash.
Hopefully that is clear.

Can I safely ignore this?
Maybe change /bin/sh to point to bash?

I don't now exactly how to do that. I tried
su -s /bin/bash walts
and it worked as far as I could tell, but the results of bitbake aren't any
different. I still get a warning message about using dash.
How do I know what shell I'm running?
ls -lah /bin/sh
should be a symbolic link to dash or bash.

BTW, I found out it pays to specify the shell you want to run.
For instance sh in some machines is but an alias to bash, but in
others it is an alias to dash. Or even *gasp* the real bourne shell
itself. I have been bitten by that a few times...
