[OE-core] alsaconf and bash

Hi all,
in alsa-utils_1.0.25.bb, I see this comment:

# We omit alsaconf, because
# a) this is a bash script
# b) it creates config files not suitable for OE-based distros

Trying out on master, I get a do_rootfs error because bash is not a 
rundep of alsa-utils, and there is nothing in the alsa-utils recipe that 
actually does the above mentioned removal of the alsaconf script. 
Looking in the git log, I only see that the comment has suddenly 
appeared in an older alsa-utils recipe and has been carried along since 
with every update to the recipe, and not left over there as an artifact 
of some older commit as I expected.
Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks,
Florin
