Hi,
With adding install files to deal with info pages to packages in [core],
there are a number of packages with install files that will cause errors
if bash is not installed before them (pacman uses /bin/sh from the
system it is installing to).
An incomplete list:
binutils
diffutils
ed
filesystem (also needs coreutils for chmod)
findutils
gcc-libs (fixed in git)
gdbm
gettext
gmp
gpm
How do we handle this? Add "sh" to dependencies? Not have post_install
for these packages (it is only info page installs...)? I did the later
for gcc-libs where it makes sense but other cases are not so clear cut.
