Ah, I see, could you include this into the wiki article on dash? This is a much cleaner solution than modifying pacman.conf like it suggests.

Eschwartz [1] filed a deletion request for dash-sh [2]:
Frivolous duplicate of extra/dash with sh symlinked to dash instead of bash.

Note that a better way of doing this is through pacman hooks:
``` [eschwartz@arch /tmp/bash-nosh]$ cat /etc/pacman.d/hooks/sh-is-dash.hook [Trigger] Type = Package Operation = Install Operation = Upgrade Target = bash
[Action] Description = Re-pointing /bin/sh symlink to dash... When = PostTransaction Exec = /usr/bin/ln -sf dash /usr/bin/sh Depends = dash ```
This allows me to use the repo packages, rather than maintaining forked copies, and at the same time ensures sh will always use dash, assuming dash is available.
