Bug#925598: upgrade-reports: Successfull upgrading armel NAS box jessie -> stretch, bug stumbled over a known bug

Package: upgrade-reports
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
   	Jessie got removed form the archive ;)
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
     	Read the release notes and followed the steps described
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   	I now have strech installed, but had to change /bin/sh from bash
	to dash
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
   	Having stretch installed independend of where /bin/sh points to
   	

I just finished my last box from Jessie (with some backports
(dehydrated) and handpicked manual installed packages (e.g. restic)) to
stretch.

During the upgrade however I seem to have run into Bug #870430:
flash-kernel didn't found the dtb file for my device.

Changing the symlink as described via "dpkg-reconfigure dash" solved the
upgrade issue for me, so I'm fine now.

I can't remmeber to have set the default shell to bash myselfe, so
assume it is still the default shell?  Then I think this bu should be
fixed in stable, too.


Best regards and many thanks,
  Alexander
