Patches unicode_start to use /bin/sh instead of /bin/bash none

Description Björn Gerhart 2008-02-05 13:41:00 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #172059 +++

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050922
Fedora/1.0.7-1.1.fc4 Firefox/1.0.7

Description of problem:
Bash scripts hang, running "bash -x" shows that they are hanging running a
command unicode_start

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bash-3.0-31

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start X, but do not login
2. <ctrl-alt-f1>
3. login to terminal session as root
  Attempt to run any bash script

Actual Results:  Script didn't start

Expected Results:  script should have started

Additional info:

I attempted to capture the output using 'script' to submit here as evidentce but
then the program ran fine, presumably because the output was a pty rather than a
tty.

Patch is created for modifying kbd-1.12-10.fc4.1.src.rpm. It just modifies the
very first line of unicode_start to #!/bin/sh.
