Re:Microsoft’s failed attempt on Debian packaging by JdeBP on Tuesday June 12, 2018 @11:50AM (#17294418)
Aside from the fact that it leaves a window where there is no /bin/sh on the system, because it is not using atomic replacement, that is not what the script is doing. This is a Debian package. /bin/sh has been the Debian Almquist shell for almost three quarters of a decade at this point.
