bashisms in meta-phosphor scripts

[Mazur, Marta]

Hi all,

We have to cut out bash from our system and use busybox ash as the only shell. I found several scripts in the meta-phosphor layer that are not POSIX compliant and therefore are unusable without bash.

Has anyone run into this problem? Does anyone have plans to remove bash dependencies from this layer?

Or maybe we could patch those scripts and submit the patches to upstream? It should increase portability to systems with any POSIX shell.

Regards,
Marta
