Hello xtex, thanks for your patch. We have been recently updating the release tooling and this bad idea mistakenly stayed there. Applied everywhere relevant (hopefully). Happy routing! Maria On Fri, May 09, 2025 at 07:14:50AM -0400, xtex via Bird-users wrote:

As tools/version has a shebang line, it should be fine to just call it without specifying bash.
Calling bash explicitly may lead to inconsistency, as the first line of tools/version indicates /usr/bin/sh but the script is always executed with bash. And, it adds bash as a new build dependency.
