Description Antoine Jacoutot 2009-02-09 05:36:29 UTC

Hi.

These 2 commits introduced a regression as bash is now a required dependency for xdg-utils. Several operating systems (the BSDs to start with) do not provide bash by default:
http://webcvs.freedesktop.org/portland/portland/xdg-utils/scripts/xdg-open?r1=1.32&r2=1.33
http://webcvs.freedesktop.org/portland/portland/xdg-utils/scripts/xdg-email?r1=1.36&r2=1.37

A shell agnostic solution should be used.
