Subject: [Spacewalk-list] Kickstart scripts

I set a couple of scripts for the install (one pre, one post), all was well.
I installed from it, all was well.  Then something changed.

Now with an unspecified interpreter it puts --interpreter into the kickstart
file which makes the kickstart fail.  For now I've just stuck /bin/bash in as
the interpreter which I assume will fix it.

Just in case anyone finds this bugzilla entry looking for a workaround, note that the interpreter should be /bin/sh, not /bin/bash, for pre scripts.

git commit: dce5d37f99dc77b8b611be1e62f8653cd322b318

Updated the KickstartFormatter to not include --interpreter in kickstart profiles for pre/post scripts created using the UI Wizard if the Scripting Language is empty.
