Regardless of what's the default, could there be a cleaner way to use dash as one's /bin/sh without preventing pacman from upgrading bash?
Manually replace /bin/sh as a symlink to /bin/dash and then set the /etc/pacman.conf values: NoUpgrade = usr/bin/sh NoExtract = usr/bin/sh ? Note: I assumed NoExtract should have been enough since the symlink usr/bin/sh -> usr/bin/bash exists in the bash package, but NoUpgrade alone creates the symlink, and NoExtract alone removes the existing symlink, leaving nothing in its wake. Use at your own risk, because this WILL break packages expecting /bin/sh to be bash and probably other things. Benjamin
