Allow specifying shell for running scriptlets
Some distributions insist on using bash specific commands in their install scripts under the assumption that "sh" is a symlink to bash. This can causes issues if (e.g.) their users what to change sh to point at another shell, such as dash, that does not support these features. Add a configure option to explicitly set the shell being used to run install scripts. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
