Bug#673335: /etc/xen-tools/role.d/editor - bashism and other problems

Package: xen-tools
Version: 4.2-1
Severity: normal

The script /etc/xen-tools/role.d/editor has a #!/bin/sh bang line, however
/bin/sh is linked to /bin/dash by default on squeeze and the script appears
to have a bashism - running it as part of xen-create-image returns an error:

/etc/xen-tools/role.d/editor: 87: Bad substitution

Changing the bang line to invoke bash appears to fix the above problem and
replace it with a more cosmetic one which still allows the script to work:

/etc/xen-tools/role.d/editor: line 80: logPrint: command not found
