It does not fail, the problem is that some construct works only on some shells |

or systems (for example type and kill -HUP warnings). |

Maybe we should add a getopt flag (-q for example) to mask that types of |
| 12 |
warnings, or maybe we should (for Gentoo/Alt) adapt files to be (almost) |
| 13 |
POSIX compliant (so command -v instead of type, kill -s HUP instead of |
| 14 |
kill -HUP, and go on) |
