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. On Thu, Feb 2, 2017, 1:39 AM Eli Schwartz, <eschwartz93@gmail.com> wrote: On 02/02/2017 01:32 AM, notify@aur.archlinux.org wrote:

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. -- Eli Schwartz -- Signed, Kieran Colford
