[Resolvconf-devel] Bug#519364: resolvconf requires bash

[Stefan Monnier]

Package: resolvconf
Version: 1.43
Severity: important

/sbin/resolvconf requires bash.  2 problems with that:
1 - the resolvconf package can be installed without installing bash
2 - that makes it unusable on a system where you use dash rather than bash
