Commit 664ae3dc52fd7fc8c6f64e6cf5e70f97dedd332d claims the package needs bash. It's simply not true. It does not require bash at all, it runs just fine with busybox's ash shell for example. I don't understand the reasoning behind that commit. There's nothing in nfs-utils that really needs bash, it runs fine without it. Also, there is an error in the startup script, I can submit a patch for that if you like. The script is needlessly complex too. -- Mike Looijmans
