Hi Robert,

many thanks for having looked at the issue in [YOCTO #1662].

Having to deal with size-contrained devices I immediately noticed that
practically if we apply this patchset we risk to add bash (and perl &
python in lesser extent) to the normal images we build.

I cannot imagine offhand why i.e. gzip/xz are rdepending on bash.
(issue raised before, see
http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2013-December/087160.html
http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2013-December/087161.html
)

I think that if some sources do contain specific perl or python script
these should be packaged separately.
Bashism should also be avoided in shell scripts: if just a few it is
maybe better to patch the script so it can be run by i.e. busybox sh.

That said, please check out the sources to see if the dependency is
real and verify the runtime deps with i.e. packages.debian.org.

Thanks again,

Andrea
