Hello maintainer,
While performing an archive wide checkbashisms (from the 'devscripts' package)
check I've found your package containing a /bin/sh script making
use of a bashism.
checkbashisms' output:
> possible bashism in ./sbin/shorewall-lite line 181 (EXP: local foo=bar):
> local finished=0
> possible bashism in ./sbin/shorewall-lite line 184 (EXP: local foo=bar):
> local rc=0
> possible bashism in ./sbin/shorewall-lite line 289 (EXP: local foo=bar):
> local finished=0 rc=0
> possible bashism in ./sbin/shorewall-lite line 528 ($HOST(TYPE|NAME)):

> possible bashism in ./sbin/shorewall-lite line 573 ($HOST(TYPE|NAME)):

Not using bash as /bin/sh would lead to errors or unexpected behaviours.
Please be aware that although
bash is currently the default /bin/sh there's a release goal for Lenny to
make dash the default /bin/sh[1].
If you want more information about dash as /bin/sh, you can read:

The end of http://bugs.debian.org/468699 which complains:

Here's what happens on a Ubuntu system:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# shorewall status
Shorewall-4.0.9 Status at tipper - Sun Mar 2 19:21:55 PST 2008
Shorewall is running
State:Started (Sat Feb 23 09:41:57 PST 2008)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# ls -il /bin/sh
408813 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2006-10-22 10:09 /bin/sh -> dash
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#
Clearly, the host name (tipper) is properly displayed in the output.
