Description Len DiMaggio 2006-10-02 15:18:09 UTC 
This is with Frysk as built from CVS head - 20060929

Frysk GUI reports 'bash' for /bin/sh - as run by task terminating observer

I'm not sure if this is really a bug, but it confused the Frysk automated GUI
tests. When a task terminating observer is instantiated, a /bin/sh process is
kicked off. The confusion is that this process is reported as bash by some of
the Frysk GUIs. (On the test system in question bash is the shell used by
terminal sessions.)

Please see the attachments - if this is the expected behavior, feel free to
close the bugzilla. The /bin/sh processes persist only if Frysk is not exited
cleanly.

Len, your hunch was correct, "wierd linux"

cagney@nettle$ ls -l `which bash`

cagney@nettle$ ls -l `which sh`
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Mar 28  2006 /bin/sh -> bash
