Severity: important
Version: 2.8.7.1-1

Hello maintainer,

While performing an archive wide checkbashisms (from the 'devscripts' package) 
check I've found your package containing one or more /bin/sh scripts making 
use of bashisms.

checkbashisms' output:
> possible bashism in ./usr/share/doc/wx2.8-examples/examples/wxPython/b line
> 3 (sourced script with arguments): 
> . b $*

Not using bash (or a Debian Policy conformant shell interpreter which does 
provide such an extra feature) as /bin/sh is likely to 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:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2008/01/msg00189.html

For more information please refer to the Debian Policy section 10.4 supporting 
this argument at:
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s-scripts

Hints about how to fix bashisms:
Sometimes these bugs are already fixed in Ubuntu, look at the PTS.
If not already fixed you can read:

Rson of the man whose ostracism is demanded for no fault of his own, but
only because God made him black. The Presbyterian Church (North)
deserves special mention for having, in the last General Assembly
rejected a compromise that approved "the policy of separate churches,
presbyteries and synods." The prize was nothing less than the ultimate
reunion of the Northern and Southern branches of that great Church. The
leaders in the Church and in the Assembly were committed to it and
warmly advocated it, but when the test vote came, it was rejected by an
overwhelming majority! _God grant that when the test comes for the
Congregationalists they may show as much back-bone!_ The present stage
of the controversy finds the Methodists, Baptists and Presbyterians
still divided, with little prospect of reunion. The Episcopalians in
South Carolina have surrendered on a compromise that permits the one
colored minister in the Convention to remain in it, but utterly forbids
the admission of any others. THE CONGREGATIONALISTS IN GEORGIA. The
Congregationalists are considering the question practically, but with a
division of sentiment. Some stand firmly against all race distinctions,
while others are disposed to compromise on a plan that keeps the two
organizations in Georgia still separated by the color-line, but that
provides for the appointment of a few delegates from each, t
