Package: bash
Version: 5.0-6
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

It seems that bash still has an "old" compiled preinst script.  Based
on the source code, it seems to handle its half of the
"dash-as-sh"-transition.  Given that dash has now dropped its preinst,
it stands to reason that we can remove bash's as well assuming it is
only aimed at handling the /bin/sh transition.

We are interested in this to reduce the number of maintscripts in
Debian in general as well as to enable progress on a proposal called
[InstallBootstrap].


Related: #599250 might also be closable.
