Example shell scripts don't run properly on Ubuntu
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MAHOUT-908
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-908
             Project: Mahout
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Grant Ingersoll
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.6


There is some funkiness on Ubuntu when running example/bin/ shell scripts such 
as classify-newsgroups.sh.  It has to do w/ the use of /bin/sh at the top you 
get odd syntax errors:
{quote}
./classify-20newsgroups.sh: 35: Syntax error: "(" unexpected (expecting "fi")
{quote}

If you switch it to /bin/bash or invoke it as "bash classify-newsgroups.sh" 
then it all works.

I assume we can make the assumption that bash exists everywhere this is going 
to run?
