Package: module-assistant
Version: 0.10.11
Severity: normal

Some modules (like ipw3945) have problems building when dash is /bin/sh.  
ipw3945 warns
about this in the build log and suggest to compile with "make SHELL=bash", 
which I could
not figure out how to do with "m-a a-i ipw3945".

It would be nice if module-assistant could set the shell to bash while building 
modules
to work around broken makefiles like these.
