[Debian-hebrew-package] Bug#465375: user-he: bashism in /bin/sh script

[Raphael Geissert]

Package: user-he
Severity: important
Version: 1.0.17
User: debian-release at lists.debian.org
Usertags: goal-dash

Hello maintainer,

While performing an archive wide checkbashisms (from the 'devscripts' package) 
check I've found your package containing a /bin/sh script making 
use of a bashism.

checkbashisms' output:
> possible bashism in ./usr/bin/hebrew-settings line 46 (alternative test
> command ([[ foo ]] should be [ foo ])): if [[ $timezone == 1 ]]; then
> possible bashism in ./usr/bin/hebrew-settings line 65 (alternative test
> command ([[ foo ]] should be [ foo ])): if [[ $enabled == 0 ]]; then


Not using bash as /bin/sh would lead to errors or unexpected behaviours. 
Please be aware that although 
bash is currently the default /bin/sh there's a release goal for Lenny to 
make dash the default /bin/sh[1].

If you want more information about dash as /bin/sh, you can read:
