Ubuntu 6.06 is LSB compliant with bash. http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/Products Also, from the LSB main page at http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/LSB: "The LSB offers a cost-effective way for application vendors to target multiple Linux distributions while building only one software package." This too is an interesting read: http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/Application_Compatibility In essence, it says that if your app runs on a LSB 3.1 compliant system, then it will run on LSB 3.2, 4.0, etc. The use of dash might interfere with that concept. -- Script that are using bash could be broken with the new symlink https://launchpad.net/bugs/61463 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
