Re: Concerning uniliateral decision making with respect to the coreutils package

Hi,

after Canonical forced dash as default into Debian, in the process
breaking the existing mechanism for /bin/sh selection via debconf,
in which bash, mksh and dash cooperated before, causing no less than
two RC bugs, which got ignored for two consecutive releases then, so
I had to remove the debconf way from mksh and document a different
way for users to use bin:mksh (/bin/lksh executable) as /bin/sh,
which got, again, broken by whatever was done for usrmerge, I’m not
very keen on introducing MORE breakage to Debian just to make the
life of the commercial company Canonical easier.

bye,
