Summary: patch-kernel.sh failes on newer versions of Ubuntu
Description:
The patch-kernel.sh script fails on newer versions of Ubuntu (and debian)
where the /bin/sh link has been changed form /bin/bash to /bin/dash. The
script will fail at line 23:
for i in `cd ${patchdir}; ls -d ${patchpattern} 2> /dev/null` ; do
where dash dosen't expand the ${patchpattern} but passes it directly to
ls. Quick fix is to relink /bin/sh to bash, but scripts that depend on
bash only features should NOT use /bin/sh but /bin/bash directly.

Can't reproduce this on Debian (changed top of script to #!/bin/dash
instead). Which package?
Mind you there doesn't seem to be any need to use ${x} throughout the
script rather than $x.
