Package: binstats
Version: 1.08-8.2
Severity: normal

The patch for binstats adds this line to binstats. It ends up in the
resulting package It.. I.. I'm not sure what it is doing.

   if [ $USEMANPATH -eq 1 -a -n "^Type -p manpath" ];then

That's not a ^ and a T. That's an actual ctrl+t, ascii 0x14.

Even if it read [ -n "type -p manpath" ], that would always be true?

I noticed, as file(1)-like tools declare the patch and binstats as a
binary file, due to the presence of this non-printable junk.

Please remove it, and/or change the shell to do something meaningful?

Cheers,
Chris.
